ASIN

ASIN(number)

Returns the arc-sine of a number.

numberThe number you want the arcsine of.

REMARKS
* For an illustrated example refer to the [[Trigonometric Functions]] page.
* The inverse of this function is the SIN function.
* The "number" is the sine of an angle in radians.
* If "number" is not numeric, then #VALUE! is returned.
* If "number" > 1, then #NUM! is returned. Example 8.
* If "number" < -1, then #NUM! is returned. Example 9.
* The angle returned is in radians between -PI/2 and PI/2.
* If your argument is in degrees, multiply by PI/180 to convert it to radians
* If you want to convert the result from radians to degrees, multiply it by 180/PI.
* You can use the SIN function to return the sine.
* You can use the ACOS function to return the arc-cosine.
* You can use the ACOT function to return the the arc-cotangent.
* You can use the ATAN function to return the arc-tangent.
* You can use the DEGREES function to convert from radians to degrees.
