The $\mathrm{arccos}$ function is the inverse function of the cosine function.
Properties
Proposition: $$\dfrac{d}{dz} \mathrm{arccos}(z) = -\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1-z^2}}$$
Proof: █
Proposition: $$\int \mathrm{arccos}(z) dz = z\mathrm{arccos}(z)-\sqrt{1-z^2}+C$$
Proof: █
Proposition: $$\mathrm{arccos}(z)=\mathrm{arcsec} \left( \dfrac{1}{z} \right)$$
Proof: █
