Memorize this: cos(arcsin x) = sin(arccos x) = v(1 - x) Multiplied together is effectively the same as squaring...

the radical disappear s The caveat is that the range on 1-x is limited to the positive values... domain o f 'x' is 1 = x = -1... which should be obvious since you are also taking the inv erse trig function of 'x' The relationship shown above can be proven rather easily by studying a unit righ t-triangle. ==== For future reference: sin(arctan cos(arctan tan(arcsin tan(arccos x) x) x) x) = = = = x / 1 / x / v(1 v(1 + v(1 + v(1 - x) x) x) x) / x
