I wish to create a calculated question giving two side (variables {a} and {b} ) and they are required to find the angle.  I can see how convert and angle to the sine E.g. Sine of 60 degree = 0.8660 , but I do not know what formula I need to use to convert the sine to and angle E.g given 0.866 = ???

Previous formula to convert to sine is (sin(deg2rad({a})) ,  but I cannot convert back to degrees.

Hope this is clear.  Thanks

Hello Greg,

combine "asin" and "rad2deg" in the following fashion within the "answer" box:   rad2deg(asin({a}/{b}))

a screen capture of such is given below:
