    This document defines and provides properties of the inverse trigonometric functions: inverse sine (arcsin), inverse cosine (arccos), and inverse tangent (arctan). It states that arcsin has domain [-1,1] and range [−π/2, π/2], arccos has domain [-1,1] and range [0, π], and arctan has domain (−∞, ∞) and range (−π/2, π/2). It also describes relationships between each inverse function and its corresponding trigonometric function.
