    The range of cos (x) is - 1 to 1 (with brackets if in interval notation as - 1 and 1 can be included) is because the radius of the unit circle is also 1. If the range went past - 1 or 1, the unit circle could not define those values, and would turn up as error or undefined. Now, if you replace a in y = acos (x) + b, the range would be different because you amplified the equation and thus the range and radius.
