Trigonometric Functions

Many routines in the Intel® Math Library are more highly optimized for Intel® microprocessors than for non-Intel microprocessors.

The mathimf.h header file includes prototypes for Intel® Math Library functions.

The Intel® Math Library supports the following trigonometric functions:

acos

Description: The acos function returns the principal value of the inverse cosine of x in the range [0, pi] radians for x in the interval [-1,1].

errno: EDOM, for |x| > 1

Calling interface:

long double acosl(long double x);
float acosf(float x);

acosd

Description: The acosd function returns the principal value of the inverse cosine of x in the range [0,180] degrees for x in the interval [-1,1].

errno: EDOM, for |x| > 1

Calling interface:
double acosd(double x);
long double acosdl(long double x);
float acosdf(float x);

asin

Description: The asin function returns the principal value of the inverse sine of x in the range [-pi/2, +pi/2] radians for x in the interval [-1,1].

errno: EDOM, for |x| > 1
