There are three common notations for inverse trigonometric functions. The arcsine function, for instance, could be written as sin −1, asin, or, as is used on this page, arcsin. For each inverse trigonometric integration formula below there is a corresponding formula in the list of integrals of inverse hyperbolic functions.
When only one value is desired, the function may be restricted to its principal branch. With this restriction, for each x {\displaystyle x} in the domain, the expression arcsin ( x ) {\displaystyle \arcsin(x)} will evaluate only to a single value, called its principal value .
A formula for computing the trigonometric identities for the one-third angle exists, but it requires finding the zeroes of the cubic equation 4x 3 − 3x + d = 0, where is the value of the cosine function at the one-third angle and d is the known value of the cosine function at the full angle.
In the integral , we may use = , = , = . Then, = = () = = = + = +. The above step requires that > and > We can choose to be the principal root of , and impose the restriction / < < / by using the inverse sine function.
There are several equivalent ways for defining trigonometric functions, and the proofs of the trigonometric identities between them depend on the chosen definition. The oldest and most elementary definitions are based on the geometry of right triangles and the ratio between their sides.

In mathematics, sine and cosine are trigonometric functions of an angle.The sine and cosine of an acute angle are defined in the context of a right triangle: for the specified angle, its sine is the ratio of the length of the side that is opposite that angle to the length of the longest side of the triangle (the hypotenuse), and the cosine is the ratio of the length of the adjacent leg to that ...
Alternatively, notice that whenever θ has a value such that l sin θ ≤ t, that is, in the range 0 ≤ θ ≤ arcsin t / l , the probability of crossing is the same as in the short needle case. However if l sin θ > t, that is, arcsin t / l < θ ≤ π / 2 the probability is constant and is equal to 1.
