\cos ^{-1}\left ( -x \right )= \pi - \cos ^{-1}x

-

 

 

\sin\left[ {arc{\rm{ cos}}\left( {{\rm{ - }}\frac{{\rm{1}}}{{\rm{2}}}} \right)} \right] = \sin \left[ {\pi - {{\cos }^{ - 1}}\frac{1}{2}} \right]            \left[\because {{{\cos }^{ - 1}}\left( { - \frac{1}{2}} \right) = \pi - {{\cos }^{ - 1}}\frac{1}{2}} \right]

= \sin\left[ {\pi - \frac{\pi }{3}} \right] = \sin \frac{{2\pi }}{3} = \frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{2}
