ASIN(x)
- Where x is the sine of the angle in Radians.
- Calci returns the arcsine (inverse sine) of a number. Output is the angle in radians.
- To convert arcsine to the degrees, multiply it by 180/PI.
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
ASIN(n)
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 and denoted by (x).
- In ASIN(X) ,x value should be with in -1 & 1.
- ASIN function determines the arcsine of the given number.
Here x is in Radians. To convert a degree value to radian, multiply 'x' with PI()/180 or use the Radians function RADIANS(X)
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
