C math asin() function

C math asin() function

The C library function double asin(double x) is used to return the arc sine (inverse sine) of any number x in radians. It takes a single argument x (1 ≥ x ≥ -1) and returns the arc sine of it in radians. This function is included in <math.h> header file.

double asin(double x);

Parameters

x − It is the floating point value in the interval [-1,+1].
