Is Arcsin Same as Inverse Sine?

Arcsine is the inverse of sine function. It is used to evaluate the angle whose sine value is equal to the ratio of its opposite side and hypotenuse.

What is equal to inverse sine?

The inverse sine function is written as sin^-1(x) or arcsin(x). Inverse functions swap x- and y-values, so the range of inverse sine is -pi/2 to /2 and the domain is -1 to 1.

Is Asin and arcsin the same?

The Asin function returns the arcsine, or inverse sine, of its argument. The arcsine is the angle whose sine is the argument. The returned angle is given in radians in the range -π/2 to π/2. The Atan function returns the arctangent, or inverse tangent, of its argument.
