Inverse Sine Function
For a function to have an inverse function, it must be one-to-one—that
is, it must pass the Horizontal Line Test.
sin x has an inverse function
on this interval.
Restrict the domain to the interval – / 2 x
/ 2, the following properties hold.
1. On the interval [– / 2, / 2], the function
y = sin x is
increasing.
2. On the interval [– / 2, / 2], y = sin x
takes on its full
range of values, –1 sin x 1.
3. On the interval [– / 2, / 2], y = sin x is
one-to-one.
By definition, the values of inverse
trigonometric functions are always
in radians.

Inverse Sine Function
On the restricted domain – / 2 x / 2, y = sin x has a
unique inverse function called the inverse sine function.
y = arcsin x or y = sin –1 x.
means the angle (or arc) whose sine is x.

Other Inverse Trigonometric Functions
The cosine function is decreasing and one-to-one on the
interval 0 x .
On the interval 0 x the cosine function has an inverse
function—the inverse cosine function:
y = arccos x or y = cos –1 x.
cos x has an inverse function on this interval.

Compositions of Functions

Compositions of Functions
For all x in the domains of f and f –1, inverse functions have the
properties
f (f –1(x)) = x and f
–1 (f (x)) = x.
![Page 19: 4.7 INVERSE TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTIONS - Utep](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021206/62061abe8c2f7b173004a3a3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Compositions of Functions
These inverse properties do not apply for arbitrary values
of x and y.
.
The property arcsin(sin y) = y
is not valid for values of y outside the interval [– / 2, / 2].

Example 5 – Using Inverse Properties
If possible, find the exact value.
a. tan[arctan(–5)] b. c. cos(cos –1 )
Solution:
a. Because –5 lies in the domain of the arctan function, the
inverse property applies, and you have
tan[arctan(–5)] = –5.

arcsine function, – / 2 y / 2.
However, 5 / 3 is coterminal with
