Find the measure of the acute angle to the nearest tenth of one degree:
(a)sec x=1.234
cos(x) = 1/1.234
x = arcsec(x) = arccos(1/1.234) = 35.87 degrees
-------------------------------------
(b)cot y=1.323
y = arccot(y) = arctan(1/1.323) = 37.08
-----------------------------------------
(c)sin y=.3052
y = arcsin(0.3052) = 17.77 degrees
