What is arcsin(−4/5)?
Answer
arcsin(−4/5) ≈
−53.1301° ≈ −0.9273 rad
Range: arcsin x is an angle from −90° to 90°, so the answer is unique.
≈ — the value is not a table one; rounded to 4 decimal places.
−4/5 = −0.8.
arcsin(−4/5) is the angle α in [−90°, 90°] with sin α = −4/5.
arcsin(−4/5) = −arcsin(4/5) ≈ −53.1301°
sin(−53.1301°) ≈ −0.8000
α = arcsin(−4/5) ≈ −53.1301°
P = (0.6, −0.8)
P lies on the line y = −4/5 in the right half of the circle, where cos α ≥ 0; highlighted: sin α = −4/5.
