You have to use the definition of cos and sin. If you use the geometric definition using a right triangle, then you see that
cos(x) = sin(pi/2-x)
If you take the cosine of one angle (alpha), you get the same as when you take the sin of the other angle (beta). Now, alpha is 90° - beta, so the result follows.
So, arcsin[cos(pi/2)] =
arcsin[sin(0)] = 0
cos(x) = sin(pi/2-x)
If you take the cosine of one angle (alpha), you get the same as when you take the sin of the other angle (beta). Now, alpha is 90° - beta, so the result follows.
So, arcsin[cos(pi/2)] =
arcsin[sin(0)] = 0
