For the inverse trigonometric function of cosine -(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4 we usually employ the abbreviation arccos and write it as arccos -(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4 or arccos(-(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4).
If you have been looking for what is arccos -(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4, either in degrees or radians, or if you have been wondering about the inverse of cos -(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4, then you are right here, too.
In this post you can find the angle arccosine of -(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4, along with identities.
Read on to learn all about the arccos of -(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4, and note that the term -sqrt(6)/4 – sqrt(2)/4 is approximately -0.96592582 as a decimal number.
Arccos of -(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4
If you want to know what is arccos -(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4 in terms of trigonometry, check out the explanations in the last paragraph; ahead in this section is the value of arccosine(-(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4):
arccosine -(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4 = 11pi/12 rad = 165 °
arccosine of -(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4 = 11pi/12 radians = 165 degrees
The arccos of -(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4 is 11pi/12 radians, and the value in degrees is 165°. To change the result from the unit radian to the unit degree multiply the angle by 180° / $\pi$ and obtain 165°.
Our results above contain fractions of pi for the results in radian, and are exact values otherwise. If you compute arccos(-(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4), and any other angle, using the calculator below, then the value will be rounded to ten decimal places.
To obtain the angle in degrees insert -(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4 as decimal in the field labelled “x”. However, if you want to be given the angle adjacent to -(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4 in radians, then you must press the swap units button.

What is arccos -(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4?
In a triangle which has one angle of 90 degrees, the cosine of the angle α is the ratio of the length of the adjacent side a to the length of the hypotenuse h: cos α = a/h.
In a circle with the radius r, the horizontal axis x, and the vertical axis y, α is the angle formed by the two sides x and r; r moving counterclockwise defines the positive angle.
As follows from the unit-circle definition on our homepage, assumed r = 1, in the intersection of the point (x,y) and the circle, x = cos α = -(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4 / r = -(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4. The angle whose cosine value equals -(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4 is α.
In the interval [0, pi] or [0°, 180°], there is only one α whose arccosine value equals -(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4. For that interval we define the function which determines the value of α as
From the definition of arccos(-(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4) follows that the inverse function y-1 = cos(y) = -(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4. Observe that the reciprocal function of cos(y),(cos(y))-1 is 1/cos(y).
Avoid misconceptions and remember (cos(y))-1 = 1/cos(y) ≠ cos-1(y) = arccos(-(sqrt6 + sqrt2)/4). And make sure to understand that the trigonometric function y=arccos(x) is defined on a restricted domain, where it evaluates to a single value only, called the principal value:
In order to be injective, also known as one-to-one function, y = arccos(x) if and only if cos y = x and 0 ≤ y ≤ pi. The domain of x is −1 ≤ x ≤ 1.
