ACOS(x)


  • Where x is the COS of the angle and is from -1 to 1.
  • By default the result obtained will be in Radians
  • Calci returns the arcCOS (inverse Cos) of a number. Output is the angle in radians.
  • The number can be a single value or any number of values.

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

Description

Consider     x = -0.8    then     =ACOS(0.8)    gives    0.64350110879

  • This function is the inverse function of COS in trignometry.
  • Also it is called as Cyclometric function.
  • ACOS is described as arcCOS and denoted by  .
  • In ACOS(x), x value should be with in -1 & 1.

Examples

ACOS(x)

  • x   is the COS of the angle
ACOS(x) Angle(radians)
ACOS(0) 1.57079632
ACOS(1) 0
