gives 0.39073112849, which agrees with my DM42

but ARCSIN of this number gives

0.40143 + 1.1E-16 i

instead of 23
which is clearly nonsense.

If you ignore the minute imaginary part of the result of ARCSIN, what you have is the correct angle but expressed in radians instead of degrees.

The algorithm should recognise that the argument of arcsin is a real number between -1 and 1 and explicitly return a real result.

Current daily drivers: HP-41CL, HP-15C, HP-16C
