How to use the arccos(x) calculator
1. Enter a real number \(x\) that belongs to the domain \([-1 , 1]\) and choose the number of decimal places.
2. Press calculate arccos(x). The answer is displayed in radians and degrees.
Formulas used:
\[ \text{arccos}(x) = y, \quad \cos(y) = x,\quad y \in [0,\pi] \]
\[ \text{degrees} = \text{radians} \times \frac{180}{\pi} \]
Example: \(\arccos(0) = \pi/2 \approx 1.571\) rad ( \(90^\circ\) )
