        !            18: .SH DESCRIPTION
        !            19: \*Msin\fR, \*Mcos\fR, and \*Mtan\fR return trigonometric functions of
        !            20: radian arguments. The magnitude of the argument should be checked by
        !            21: the caller to make sure that the result is meaningful.
        !            22: .LP
        !            23: \*Masin\fR returns the arc sin in the range \-\(*p/2 to \(*p/2.
        !            24: .LP
        !            25: \*Macos\fR returns the arc cosine in the range 0 to \(*p.
        !            26: .LP
        !            27: \*Matan\fR returns the arc tangent in the range \-\(*p/2 to \(*p/2.
        !            28: .LP
        !            29: \*Matan2\fR returns the tangent of \*Mx\fR/\*My\fR in the range \-\(*p to \(*p.
        !            30: .LP
        !            31: \*Mdtor\fR converts degrees to radians, while \*Mrtod\fR converts radians
        !            32: to degrees.
        !            33: .LP
        !            34: The C math library (\*M\-lm\fR)  must be loaded with these functions.
        !            35: .SH DIAGNOSTICS
        !            36: Run-time error 251 occurs if the magnitude of the argument to \*Masin\fR or \*Macos\fR
        !            37: is greater than 1.
        !            38: .LP
        !            39: Run-time error 252 occurs for the singular points of \*Mtan\fR.
        !            40: .SH BUGS
        !            41: The value of \*Mtan\fR for arguments greater than about 2\u\s-2\&31\s0\d
        !            42: is garbage.
