By convention, arcsin(x) is expressed as an angle between and , so as an angle in quadrants 1 or 4, where positive angles are measured counterclockwise from the positive x-axis. Only if other information is given should the angle be expressed as being quadrant 2 or 3. Also note that the angle aliases to because the latter rotates radians (one full circle is radians, but that answer does not follow the convention. So only B looks correct.
