In summary, the formula for evaluating arcsin (cos (7pi/5)) is arcsin(cos(x)) = x, where x is the angle in radians. The angle in radians for 7pi/5 is 7pi/5 radians, which can also be written as 1.4pi radians or 252 degrees. The value of cos (7pi/5) is -0.80901699, which can also be written as -√3/2 or -0.809. To evaluate arcsin of a cosine value, you can use the formula arcsin(cos(x)) = x, where x is the angle in radians. In this case, x = 7pi/5 or 1

What do you mean by evaluate? What does this have to do with calculus? Could you make this a little more clear, maybe by posting what work you have, even if it is wrong?

cos(theta+pi/2)=-sin(theta) and then you should be able to determine what the arcsin will give you

or you could take your 7pi/5 and then add pi/2 and get -sin(theta)
