How to find an arcsine

The return to a sine trigonometrical function is called an arcsine. It can accept the values lying within a half of number of Pi both in positive and in negative the parties at measurement in radians. At measurement in degrees these values will be, respectively, in range from -90 ° up to +90 °.

Instruction

1. It is not obligatory to calculate some "round" values of an arcsine, simpler to remember them. For example: - if the argument of function is equal to zero, then the value of an arcsine from it is equal to zero too; - the arcsine from 1/2 is equal 30 ° or 1/6 from Pi's number if to measure in radians; - the arcsine from-1/2 is equal -30 ° or-1/6 from Pi's number in radians; - the arcsine from 1 is equal 90 ° or 1/2 from Pi's number in radians; - the arcsine from-1 is equal -90 ° or-1/2 from Pi's number in radians;

2. For measurement of values of this function from other arguments it is the simplest to use the standard Windows calculator if near at hand there is a computer. To start the calculator open the main menu on the Start-up button (mouse or pressing of the WIN key), pass into the section "All Programs", and then into the subsection "Standard" and click the Calculator point.

3. Switch the interface of the calculator to that operating mode which allows to calculate trigonometrical functions. For this purpose open the section "Look" in its menu and select the Engineering or Scientific item (depending on the used operating system).

4. Enter value of an argument from which it is necessary to calculate an arctangent. It can be done, clicking the button of the interface of the calculator a mouse, or pressing keys on the keyboard, or having copied value (CTRL + C) and then having inserted it (CTRL + V) into the entry field of the calculator.

5. Choose units of measure in which you need to receive result of function evaluation. Below the entry field three options from which you need to choose (having clicked its mouse) some - degrees, radians are placed or are glad.

6. Give a mark in a checkbox which inverts the functions specified on buttons of the interface of the calculator. Near it there is a short inscription Inv.

7. Click the sin button. The calculator inverts the function tied to it, will make calculation and will present you result in the set units of measure.
