Hi Priyanthi,

To use the inverse sine function (sin^-1) in Excel 2007, you can follow these steps:

Select the cell where you want to display the result of the inverse sine function.
Type the formula "
Code:
```
=ASIN(
```
" followed by the number or cell reference for which you want to find the inverse sine. For example, if you want to find the inverse sine of 0.5, you would type "
Code:
```
=ASIN(0.5)
```
".
Close the parentheses and press Enter. The result will be displayed in the selected cell.

Note that the result of the inverse sine function will be in radians. If you want to convert it to degrees, you can multiply it by

Code:

180/PI()

. For example, if the result of the inverse sine function is in cell A1, you can convert it to degrees by typing "

Code:

=A1*180/PI()

".
