cos -1 = inverse cosine
tan -1 = inverse tangent
circular functions {arc cos, arc sin, and arc tan} arc is measured by the angel taht opens up to it.
Inverse undoes the function
x2 & Square root of x
multiplicative inverse = 3 times 1/3 = 1
additive inverse = 3 + -3 = 0
f(x) = x2
g(x) = square root of x
(f0g)(x) = (g0f)(x) = x
x is greater than or equal to zero.
Inverses
- reflections over y = x
- (x, y) - (y, x)
- (f0g)(x) = (g0f)(x) =x
To take an inverse you have to first restrict the domain
For inverses inputs and outputs switch.
Inverse Sine
y=sin(x)
Domain: (-3.14/2, 3.14/2)
Range: (-1, 1)y=sin-1(x)
Domain: (-1, 1)
Range (-3.14/2, 3.14/2)
Inverse Cosine
y=cos(x)
Domain: (0, 3.14)Range: (-1, 1)
y=cos-1(x)
Domain: (-1,1)
Range: (0, 3.14)
Inverse Tangent
y=tan(x)
Domain: (-3.14/2, 3.14/2)
Range: (-infinity, infinity)
y=tan-1(x)
Domain: (-infinity, infinity)
Range: (-3.14/2, 3.14/2)
