Wrong Value

In my attached program, I'm getting the wrong value.

 

The A value should calculate 6.01 mm...

However, MathCAD 9.0.0.0 calculates 15.77 mm

I double checked my numbers and ran them through a calculator and I got 6.0086. I presume I have the wrong units somewhere, but I can't figure it out. I attached my program for review, or you can look at the screen capture of the calculations below.

You forgot to specify unit degree when you wrote 90. So it was interpreted as 90 radiants which is about 5160 degrees.
