ACOS(expression)
| ACOS | Returns inverse cosine. |
| expression | A numeric constant, variable, or expression for the value of the cosine. |
The ACOS procedure returns the inverse cosine. The inverse of a cosine is the angle that produces the cosine. The return value is the angle in radians. p is a constant which represents the ratio of the circumference and radius of a circle. There are 2p radians (or 360 degrees) in a circle.
| Return Data Type: | REAL |
Example:
PI EQUATE(3.1415926535898) !The value of PI
Rad2Deg EQUATE(57.295779513082) !Number of degrees in a radian
Deg2Rad EQUATE(0.0174532925199) !Number of radians in a degree
CODE
InvCosine = ACOS(CosineAngle) !Get the Arccosine
