acosd
acosd(x)
Compute the inverse cosine of x
, where the output is in degrees
Examples
julia> acosd(0.5)
60.00000000000001
julia> acosd(1)
0.0
julia> acosd(-1)
180.0
julia> acosd(sqrt(3)/2)
30.000000000000004
The acosd
function in Julia computes the inverse cosine of a given value x
, where the output is in degrees. Here are some common examples of its use:
-
Compute the inverse cosine of a value:
julia> acosd(0.5) 60.00000000000001
In this example, the
acosd
function returns the inverse cosine of 0.5, which is approximately 60 degrees. -
Handle edge cases:
julia> acosd(1) 0.0 julia> acosd(-1) 180.0
The
acosd
function correctly handles special cases where the input value is 1 or -1, returning 0 degrees and 180 degrees, respectively. - Compute the inverse cosine of a trigonometric function:
julia> acosd(sqrt(3)/2) 30.000000000000004
This example demonstrates the usage of
acosd
to compute the inverse cosine ofsqrt(3)/2
, which corresponds to approximately 30 degrees.
Please note that due to floating-point precision, the actual output values may have slight variations from the exact expected values.
