Arcsin

f(x) = arcsin(x)

Overview

Arcsin is the inverse of sin, restricted to [-π/2, π/2]. It answers: "what angle has this sine?"

Domain

[-1, 1]

Range

[-π/2, π/2]

Symmetry

Odd

Key Properties

1

Domain: [-1, 1]

2

Range: [-π/2, π/2]

3

Odd function

4

d/dx[arcsin(x)] = 1/√(1-x²)

Key Insight

arcsin(sin(x)) = x only when x ∈ [-π/2, π/2]. Outside this range, you get a different angle.
