arctan
Tangent's reverse function
Arctan is the inverse tangent function in trigonometry, returning the angle whose tangent equals a given value.
Written arctan or tan⁻¹, it answers: what angle has this tangent?
The arctan of 1 is 45 degrees.
The output is typically restricted to angles between -90° and 90° to ensure a unique result.
