Compute Arccosine
Examples in
JavaScript
// Calculates angle of a right-angle triangle in radians
function calcAngle(adjacent, hypotenuse) {
return Math.acos(adjacent / hypotenuse);
}
console.log(calcAngle(8, 10));
// expected output: 0.6435011087932843
console.log(calcAngle(5, 3));
// expected output: NaN
Math.acos(-2); // NaN
Math.acos(-1); // 3.141592653589793
Math.acos(0); // 1.5707963267948966
Math.acos(0.5); // 1.0471975511965979
Math.acos(1); // 0
Math.acos(2); // NaN
