+.Sh NAME
+.Nm sincos ,
+.Nm sincosf ,
+.Nm sincosl
+.Nd sine and cosine functions
+.Sh LIBRARY
+.Lb libm
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In math.h
+.Ft void
+.Fn sincos "double x" "double *s" "double *c"
+.Ft void
+.Fn sincosf "float x" "float *s" "float *c"
+.Ft void
+.Fn sincosl "long double x" "long double *s" "long double *c"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Fn sincos ,
+.Fn sincosf ,
+and
+.Fn sincosl
+functions compute the sine and cosine of
+.Fa x .
+Using these functions allows argument reduction to occur only
+once instead of twice with individual invocations of
+.Fn sin
+and
+.Fn cos .
+Like
+.Fn sin
+and
+.Fn cos ,
+a large magnitude argument may yield a result with little
+or no significance.
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+Upon returning from
+.Fn sincos ,
+.Fn sincosf ,
+and
+.Fn sincosl ,
+the memory pointed to by
+.Ar "*s"
+and
+.Ar "*c"
+are assigned the values of sine and cosine, respectively.
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr cos 3 ,
+.Xr sin 3 ,
+.Sh HISTORY
+These functions were added to
+.Fx 9.0
+to aid in writing various complex function contained in
+.St -isoC-99 .
