I suspect this could even fail in some circumstances.  If it's for
school you're probably covered, but in real world, it would be better
to:

1. Rewrite calculation to avoid arccos and arcsin (using trigonometric
or geometric identities)

2. Clamp it to range [-1.0:1.0].  You can do this in numpy with
numpy.clip().
