  1. arc cosine

    Arc cosine, often denoted as acos or cos^-1, is the inverse function of cosine, meaning it undoes the operation of the cosine function. If you have an angle and you take the cosine of it, the arc cosine will give you back the original angle. It is usually defined to range from 0 to π radian or 0 to 180 degrees. This function is often used in trigonometry, physics, and engineering to solve for unknown angles based on trigonometric ratios.
