The arcsine is the angle whose sine is equal to the given value. arcsine is also called sine inverse (sin-1 ) if sin 30o = 1/2 , then sin-1 1/2 = 30o
The number 1.414... (square root of 2) is two times the cosine or sine of a 45 degree angle. The reason for this is that for a 45 degree angle, the two sides are cosine and sine, they are equal, and if you solve using the Pythagorean theorem with a hypotenuse of 1, the two sides are each (21/2)/2.
sine[theta]=opposite/hypotenuse=square root of (1-[cos[theta]]^2)
sin(30) = 1/2
Divide -900 by 360, and the remainder will be the angle you need to find the sine of: -900 / 360 = -2.5 --> -900 = 360*(-2 - 0.5), so sine(-180°) = sine(-900°). sine(-180°) = 0
