ASIN( Number )
Argument Properties Description
Number The sine of the angle you want and must be from -1 to 1.

Return Values

Returns the arcsine, or inverse sine, of a number.

Remarks

To express the arcsine in degrees, multiply the result by 180/PI( ) or use the DEGREES function.

Example

Formula Description Result
= ASIN(-0.5) Arcsine of -0.5 in radians, -pi/6 -0.523598776
= ASIN(-0.5)*180/PI() Arcsine of -0.5 in degrees -30
= DEGREES(ASIN(-0.5)) Arcsine of -0.5 in degrees -30
