<h3 id="Retorno">Retorno</h3>

<p>O arco cosseno(em radianos) se o valor passado como parâmetro for entre -1 e 1; caso contrario retornará {{jsxref("NaN")}}.</p>

<h2 id="Description">Description</h2>

<p>O <code>Math.acos()</code> metodo retorna um numero entre 0 e π radians para valores passado como parâmetros entre -1 e 1. Se o valor estiver fora dessa variação será retornado {{jsxref("NaN")}}.</p>

<p>Porque <code>acos() é um metodo estático</code>, você sempre usará <code>Math.acos() ao invés de criar um Objecto Math(Math não é um construtor).</code></p>
