As I've previously (and repeatedly) confessed, my knowledge of math is
sketchy and, shall we say, somewhat organic. I have almost no recollection
of many of the processes I briefly used fifteen years ago and not at all
since. Well, until now.
Using Al Gore's Internet and the helpful advice of people on LUGNET, I've
pieced together a basic, functional understanding of certain trig functions
and basic geometric whatnot. One thing that's eluding me pertains to the
use of a function in MS Excel. How do I generate an Inverse Sine function?
Using my equally handy MS Calculator, I can simply check the "inverse" box
and then click "sin" to get the figure I want, but I can't jiggle the
numbers correctly in Excel. The "help" file isn't really helpful, and, as I
mentioned, my overall mathematical knowledge is quite incomplete.
It's not vital that I have this info, but if anyone can give a poor soul a
pointer I'd be most appreciative.
Thanks as always,
Dave!
