Is there a chip to output x, for inputs sin(x) and cos(x)?

I have sin(x(t)) and cos(x(t)) and would like to solve for x(t) in hardware.
I need to use both sin(x(t)) and cos(x(t)) as two inputs and x(t) is not
necessarily be a periodic function.

I know how to solve for x using discrete devices (differentation,
multiplication, addition, integration, or multiplying with a high
frequency signal, addition, PLL, etc...). I thought there might
be a chip that is already doing that. So does anyone have any idea?
Let's say highest frequency in x(t)'s spectrum is less than 100 kHz. 
I appreciate any information.
