ASIN

Description

Returns the inverse sine of a value, in radians.

Sample Usage

ASIN(0)

ASIN(A2)

ASIN(1)

Syntax

ASIN(value)

  • value - The value for which to calculate the inverse sine. Must be between -1 and 1, inclusive.

Notes

  • The DEGREES function can be used to convert the result into degrees.

  • Because sine is periodic, there are many solutions to the inverse. ASIN returns the solution between -Pi/2 and Pi/2.

Step 1: To use the ASIN Formula, simply begin with your edited Excellentable:

Step 2: Then begin typing the ASIN formula in the area you would like to display the outcome: 

By adding the values you would like to calculate, Excellentable generates the outcome:
