Inverse cosine
Read OriginalThis technical article analyzes why sin(arccos(x)) simplifies to √(1 − x²), providing a geometric proof for real numbers. It then extends the discussion to complex numbers, examining branch cuts, analytic continuation, and the conventions for defining arccos and square root functions to maintain the identity's validity across the complex plane.
