ASIN(x)

• Where x is the number and it is varying from -1 to 1.
• The value of ASIN(x) is in radians in the range -pi()/2 to pi()/2.
• Calci returns the value of arcsine (inverse sine)is in Radians.
• The number can be a single value or any number of values.

For example, ASIN(0.5,(-0.2),1) gives the arcsine or inversesine values for each element.

Description

Consider n = (-0.8) then, ASIN((-0.8)) is -0.9273

• This function is the Inverse function of Sin in trigonometry.
• It's also called as Cyclometric function.
• ASIN is described as Arcsin of a given number and denoted by $sin^{-1}$(x).
• In ASIN(x) ,x value should be with in -1 & 1.
• To find the angle in degrees, multiply the result angle with 180/PI().
• DEGREES function can also be used.

For example ASIN(-0.8)*180/PI() or DEGREES(ASIN(-0.8)) gives -53.13010235415598

Examples

ASIN(number)	*Angle(Radian)
ASIN(-0.8)	-0.9273
ASIN(1)	1.5707963267948965
ASIN(0.559)	0.5931792803038736
