    A formula for computing the trigonometric identities for the one-third angle exists, but it requires finding the zeroes of the cubic equation 4x 3 − 3x + d = 0, where is the value of the cosine function at the one-third angle and d is the known value of the cosine function at the full angle.

  3. Inverse trigonometric functions - Wikipedia

    [1] [10] Another precarious convention used by a small number of authors is to use an uppercase first letter, along with a “ −1 ” superscript: Sin −1 (x), Cos −1 (x), Tan −1 (x), etc. [11] Although it is intended to avoid confusion with the reciprocal, which should be represented by sin −1 (x), cos −1 (x), etc., or, better, by ...

  4. 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).

  5. List of integrals of inverse trigonometric functions - Wikipedia

    There are three common notations for inverse trigonometric functions. 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.

    Alternatively, notice that whenever θ has a value such that l sin θ ≤ t, that is, in the range 0 ≤ θ ≤ arcsin ⁠ t / l ⁠, the probability of crossing is the same as in the short needle case. However if l sin θ > t, that is, arcsin ⁠ t / l ⁠ < θ ≤ ⁠ π / 2 ⁠ the probability is constant and is equal to 1.

  7. Arcsine distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arcsine_distribution

    [1] [2] The arcsine probability density is a distribution that appears in several random-walk fundamental theorems. In a fair coin toss random walk , the probability for the time of the last visit to the origin is distributed as an (U-shaped) arcsine distribution .

  8. Sin-1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIN-1

    sin x−1 = sin(x)−1 = −(1−sin(x)) = −cvs(x) or negative coversine of x, the additive inverse (or negation) of an old trigonometric function; sin −1 y = sin −1 (y), sometimes interpreted as arcsin(y) or arcsine of y, the compositional inverse of the trigonometric function sine (see below for ambiguity)
