Anyway, here is my conversion (which is not working).
x = 2R * arcsin(s/2R)
Hi Sam,
This is incorrect, try again:)
After solving for x, check that it satisfies the original equation.
--http://kaba.hilvi.org
Try this:
s = R*sin((360/x)*0.5)
s/R = sin((360/x)*0.5)
arcsin(s/R) = (360/x)*0.5
arcsin(s/R)/(360*0.5) = 1/x
(360*0.5)/arcsin(s/R) = x
- T
Mathematically correct, but perhaps the OP's
question should have been:
How can I invert the function s(x) for x(s) ,
where x is given in degrees ?
s = R*sin(x/180)
sin((360/x)*0.5) doesn't make much sense
(but of course - defining a function is up to
anybody, and writing 360*0.5 is just the same
as 180).
