Script Preparation code:

var N = 1000000;
var x = new Float32Array(N);
var y = new Float32Array(N);

for (var i = 0; i < N; ++i) {
    x[i] = 100 * Math.random();
    y[i] = 100 * Math.random();
}

Tests:

acos
var fn = Math.acos; for (var i = 0; i < N; ++i) { fn(x[i]/sqrt(x[i]*x[i]+y[i]*y[i])); }
atan2
var fn = Math.atan; for (var i = 0; i < N; ++i) { fn(y[i], x[i]); }
