Format: ASin(X)
Parameters:  
X
Required. Any numeric expression in the range -1 to +1.
Comments:

The returned angle is in radians. To convert an angle from radians to degrees, divide by \pi/ 180 or (approximately) 0.0174533.

  radAngle = ASin(1);
  degAngle = radAngle / \pi / 180;

The value of degAngle will be 90.
