Math.asin(1) Equals PI/2

πŸ“– Usage Example
// Inverse sine β€” result in radians
Math.asin(0)   // β†’ 0
Math.asin(1)   // β†’ 1.5707... (Ο€/2)

Use Math.asin() to find the angle (in radians) whose sine equals a given value.

Math.asin(x)

Math.asin(1) returns Math.PI / 2 (approximately 1.5708 radians).

Challenge: Verify that Math.asin(1) equals Ο€/2.

πŸ’‘ Hints (2)
  • β€’ sin(Ο€/2) = 1, so asin(1) = Ο€/2
  • β€’ Math.PI / 2 β‰ˆ 1.5708
