They’re inverse/arc trigonometric functions.

For instance, if you wanted to find an angle on a triangle, and you knew the lengths of each (or at least two) of the sides, then you could use an inverse trig function to find the angle.

e.g. sin(θ) = opposite / hypotenuse, so if you knew both the opposite and hypotenuse lengths, you could find the angle as such: θ = asin(opposite / hypotenuse).
