Umm... the mathematical inverse of cosine is secant, i.e., cos x = 1/(sec
x).  Likewise, the mathematical inverse of sine is cosecant, and of
tangent, cotangent.  Arc <trig> x has, to my knowledge, always been "the
angle who's <trig> is x"



(I think) he meant  that arccos is the  _inverse function_  to cos   like:

x = arccos ( cos(x))
