arccot
Inverse cotangent function
Arccot is the inverse cotangent function in trigonometry—given a ratio, it returns the angle whose cotangent equals that ratio.
Also written as cot⁻¹ or arccotan.
Like other inverse trigonometric functions, arccot appears primarily in calculus and engineering contexts: The arccot of 1 is π/4 radians.
