Arccos Calculator – Online Inverse Cosine Calculator
Defination: Arccosine defines as the inverse function of cos(y).
Formula: arccos(y) = cos-1(y)
Firstly, let’s take some examples to understand the process/calculation and formula.
Example: Find the Arccos of 0.6
arccos(0.6) = cos-1(0.6)
= 53.13010235 degrees or 0.92729522 radians
Calculation:
arccos(0.6) = cos-1(0.6) = 53° 7′ 48.368″
= 53.13010235° + k×360° (k=..-1,0,1,..)
= -306.86989765°, 53.13010235°, 413.13010235°, ..
= 0.92729522rad + k×2π (k=..-1,0,1,..)
= -1.70483276π, 0.29516724π, 2.29516724π, ..
