Inverse Trigonometric Functions • If -1≤a≤1, then the inverse sine of a is sin-1a=θ where sinθ=a and -90˚≤θ≤90˚. • If -1≤a, then the inverse cosine of a is cos-1a=θ and -0˚≤θ≤180˚. • If a is any real number, then the inverse tangent of a is tan-1θ=a where tanθ=a and -90˚<θ<90.˚
Examples: • Evaluate the expression in both radians and degrees.
Examples: • Evaluate the expression in both radians and degrees.

Example: • Solve the equation where 180˚<θ<270˚
Example: • Solve the equation where 90˚<θ<180˚
Example: • A sand pile in a yard is 4 feet high. A diameter of its base is 10 feet. • Find the angle of repose for this pile of sand. • How tall will a pile of this sand be if the base has a diameter of 40 feet?
Example: • A crane whose lower end is 4 feet off the ground has a 100 foot arm. The arm has to reach the top of a building 80 feet high. At what angle should the arm be set?
Example: • A 10 inch high pile of sand in a sandbox has a diameter of 35 inches. • What is the angle of repose for this sand? • How wide will a pile 18 inches high be?
