ASin

 Calculates the arcsine, or inverse sine, of a number. The angle is expressed in radians, in an interval from -pi/2 to +pi/2.

Syntax

ASin(number)
ArcSin(number)
number = number whose arcsine you want to retrieve, must be between -1 and +1

Remarks

If number is outside the interval from -1 to +1, the function will return a zero.

If you want a result expressed in degrees, you can multiply it by 180/pi or use the Degrees function.

Example

ASin(0) = 0
Degrees(ASin(-0.5)) = -30
