We consider the numerical solution of the Helmholtz equation by different finite element methods. In particular, we are interested in finding an efficient method for approximating the gradient of the solution. We first approximate the gradient by the standard Ritz-Galerkin method. As a second method a two-stage method due to \textit{A. Aziz} and \textit{A. Werschulz} [SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 17, 681-686 (1980; Zbl 0466.65061)] is presented. It is shown that this method gives the same accuracy in the computed gradient and in the computed solution also in the nonconforming case. Finally, a direct method with asymptotic error estimates is given. It turns out that the presented direct method is of lowest computational complexity. Test examples are presented to illustrate the accuracy of the methods.
