Also what should i press for my calculator to show: arccsc
The range of the arcos function is not defined over [0, 2pi).

I'm guessing that your question is actually how to solve \cos \theta = 0.3 for 0 \leq \theta < 2 \pi. You go to the F2 menu and select 1: solve(

Then it's

solve(cos x = 0.3, x)|0<x<2pi
