Thanks anon.
I am having problems getting my head around this so I'd like another mathematician to take a look please.
acot(sec(acsc -2sqrt 3/2))
I also will interpret this as acot(sec(acsc( -2sqrt 3/2))) but you really did need brackets here.
$$acot(sec(acsc( \frac{-2\sqrt 3}{2})))\\\\
=acot(sec(acsc( -\sqrt 3))\\\\
=acot(sec(asin( \frac{1}{-\sqrt 3}))\\\\
NOTE \;\;asin( \frac{1}{-\sqrt 3})\quad $is an angle in the 4th quadrant$\\\\
$And sec of an angle in the 4th quad is positive$\\\\
=acot(\frac{\sqrt3}{\sqrt2})\\\\
=atan(\frac{\sqrt2}{\sqrt3})\\\\
=atan\sqrt{\frac{2}{3}}\\\\$$
$$\underset{\,\,\,\,^{\textcolor[rgb]{0.66,0.66,0.66}{360^\circ}}}{{tan}}^{\!\!\mathtt{-1}}{\left({\sqrt{{\frac{{\mathtt{2}}}{{\mathtt{3}}}}}}\right)} = {\mathtt{39.231\: \!520\: \!483\: \!592^{\circ}}}$$
That is what I get but I'd really like someone else to look at it please.
Even if it is correct, is there an easier way of working it through?
ADDED
I ran this question through Wolfram|Alpha and got the same answer
