  2. Inverse trigonometric functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_trigonometric...

    The most common convention is to name inverse trigonometric functions using an arc- prefix: arcsin(x), arccos(x), arctan(x), etc. [1] (This convention is used throughout this article.) This notation arises from the following geometric relationships: [ citation needed ] when measuring in radians, an angle of θ radians will correspond to an arc ...

    The arcsine function, for instance, could be written as sin −1, asin, or, as is used on this page, arcsin. For each inverse trigonometric integration formula below there is a corresponding formula in the list of integrals of inverse hyperbolic functions .

  5. Inverse hyperbolic functions - Wikipedia

    For arcoth, the argument of the logarithm is in (−∞, 0], if and only if z belongs to the real interval [−1, 1]. Therefore, these formulas define convenient principal values, for which the branch cuts are (−∞, −1] and [1, ∞) for the inverse hyperbolic tangent, and [−1, 1] for the inverse hyperbolic cotangent.

  6. Trigonometric functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonometric_functions

    The notations sin −1, cos −1, etc. are often used for arcsin and arccos, etc. When this notation is used, inverse functions could be confused with multiplicative inverses. The notation with the "arc" prefix avoids such a confusion, though "arcsec" for arcsecant can be confused with "arcsecond".

    Sin-1, SIN-1, sin-1, or sin −1 may refer to: ... or arcsine of y, the compositional inverse of the trigonometric function sine (see below for ambiguity)

  8. Sine and cosine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sine_and_cosine

    In mathematics, sine and cosine are trigonometric functions of an angle.The sine and cosine of an acute angle are defined in the context of a right triangle: for the specified angle, its sine is the ratio of the length of the side opposite that angle to the length of the longest side of the triangle (the hypotenuse), and the cosine is the ratio of the length of the adjacent leg to that of the ...

  9. Elementary function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_function

    In mathematics, an elementary function is a function of a single variable (typically real or complex) that is defined as taking sums, products, roots and compositions of finitely many polynomial, rational, trigonometric, hyperbolic, and exponential functions, and their inverses (e.g., arcsin, log, or x 1/n).
