The ASIN function returns the arcsine of a number, that is, it returns the arc whose sine is the indicated one.
Syntax
ASIN(
<value>
)
Parameters
- value: Sine of the arc to be obtained. It should take a value between -1 and 1 (both values included).
Returned value
The ASIN function returns a real number representing an angle in radians in the range -PI / 2 to PI / 2.
Additional Information
The result is a value in radians. If you want to express in sexagesimal degrees, you must multiply by 180/PI () or use the DEGREES function. If the arcsine of a number outside the range [-1, 1] is requested, the ASIN function returns an error.
