6.63 RM G.2.4(19): Accuracy Requirements

“The versions of the forward trigonometric functions without aCycle parameter should not be implemented by calling the corresponding version with a Cycle parameter of2.0*Numerics.Pi, since this will not provide the required accuracy in some portions of the domain. For the same reason, the version of Log without a Base parameter should not be implemented by calling the corresponding version with a Baseparameter of Numerics.e.”

Followed.
