ASN
PURPOSE
: Returns the angle value for which sine (angle value) = argument.
FORMAT
:
ASN
(argument)
Numeric expression
The parenthesis enclosing the argument can be omitted when the argument is a
numeric value or variable.
EXAMPLE
: ASN (0.1)
PARAMETERS
: argument must be within the [-1 , +1] range
EXPLANATION
:
1. The unit of the returned value is specified using the ANGLE function.
2. The returned value is in the [0 , 180°] or [0 ,
π
Radians ] range.
SEE
: ANGLE, COS
ATN
PURPOSE
: Returns the angle value for which tangent (angle value) = argument.
FORMAT
: double atan(x) double x;
ATN
(argument)
Numeric expression

COS
PURPOSE
: Returns the value of the cosine of the argument.
FORMAT
:
