Try slipping him some inverse cosine. But be careful around that inverse stuff.

I completed grade twelve academic math, but I have nooo idea how that works.
I'm intrigued though, what's up with that?

What kind of Calc do you have? Most common round these parts is the TI-83+

It's the field with 3 elements, 0, 1, and 2. It has to obey certain rules like the field of all real numbers, like closure (if two elements from the field are added or multiplied together, the result is still in the field), associative property, commutative property, distributive property, and some other stuff.
