Simplify arcsin(( square root of 3)/2)

Problem

arcsin(√(,3)/2)

Solution

1. Identify the goal, which is to find an angle θ in the restricted range of the inverse sine function, [−π/2,π/2] such that sin(θ)=√(,3)/2

2. Recall the values of the sine function for standard angles in the first quadrant of the unit circle.

3. Determine that sin(π/3)=√(,3)/2 or sin(60)=√(,3)/2

4. Verify that the angle π/3 falls within the required interval [−π/2,π/2]

Final Answer

arcsin(√(,3)/2)=π/3
