Yep, they're functions. If you ever NEED to get a different value for arcsin or arccos for some reason, you can just add k * 2pi, where k is any integer (including negative), but I'm not aware of any circumstances where that's relevant. (You can add k * pi for arctan, and I already explained a meaningful example of when you might need to do that.)
