Theorem: Injectivity of the Cosine Function

The restriction of the real cosine function on the interval is injective on its image and thus admits an inverse function.

Definition: Real Arccosine Function

The real arccosine function is the inverse function of the restriction of the real cosine function on the interval .

Note: Domain of the Real Arccosine Function

The domain of the real arccosine function is the interval .

Note: Image of the Real Arcsine Function

The image the real arccosine function is the interval .
