Some "Modeling with sinusoidal functions: phase shift" questions have an incorrect answer in the practice section of the Unit: Trigonometric functions HS Trig

I think one was a question about Pluto:

D(22) = -1.5cos(2pi(t+11)/248) +5.9 = 4.89 approx.

I think the answer should be:

D(22) = 4.40

Whenever you are doing a trigonometric problem, make sure you are calculating with the correct unit of angle measure. I'm guessing that the problem you are working with requires the use of radians, not degrees. If you used degrees to come up with the answer, try again with radians.

Massive light bulb moment! Thank you ever so much for taking the time to reply.

Apologies, I've just realised I needed to scroll down on the Unit to find the correct place to put this question. Been away a while and navigation skills not the best!
