Study Notes

  • Inverse Sine Function
  • The inverse sine function is denoted as sin⁻¹(x) or arcsin(x).
  • It's defined as the angle θ in the interval -π/2 ≤ θ ≤ π/2 whose sine equals x.
  • For example, sin⁻¹(-1) = -π/2 because the sine of -π/2 is -1.
  • It's important to note that the interval for θ is restricted to ensure that the inverse sine function is a function (meaning it has only one output for each input).
  • Finding the Exact Values of Inverse Sine Function
  • To find the exact value of sin⁻¹(x), we need to determine the angle θ in the interval -π/2 ≤ θ ≤ π/2, whose sine is equal to x.
  • For example, sin⁻¹(√3/2) = π/3 because the sine of π/3 is √3/2 and π/3 lies within the specified interval.
  • Finding the Exact Value of the Inverse Tangent Function
  • To find the exact value of tan⁻¹(x), we need to determine the angle θ in the interval -π/2 < θ < π/2, whose tangent is equal to x.
  • For example, tan⁻¹(-√3) = -π/3 because the tangent of -π/3 is -√3 and -π/3 lies within the specified interval.
  • Properties of Inverse Functions
    • For the sine function, the following properties hold:
  • sin(sin⁻¹(x)) = x for -1 ≤ x ≤ 1 (this is the cancellation property)
  • sin⁻¹(sin(x)) = x for -π/2 ≤ x ≤ π/2
    • For the cosine function, the following properties hold:
  • cos(cos⁻¹(x)) = x for -1 ≤ x ≤ 1
  • cos⁻¹(cos(x)) = x for 0 ≤ x ≤ π
    • For the tangent function, the following properties hold:
  • tan(tan⁻¹(x)) = x for all real numbers x
  • tan⁻¹(tan(x)) = x for -π/2 < x < π/2
  • Finding the Inverse Function of a Trigonometric Function
    • To find the inverse function of a trigonometric function, we need to follow these steps:
  • Replace f(x) with y.
  • Interchange x and y.
  • Solve for y.
  • Replace y with f⁻¹(x).
    • For example, to find the inverse function of f(x) = 2sinx - 1, we would follow these steps:
  • y = 2sinx - 1.
  • x = 2siny - 1.
  • x + 1 = 2siny.
  • siny = (x + 1)/2.
  • y = sin⁻¹((x + 1)/2).
  • f⁻¹(x) = sin⁻¹((x + 1)/2)
  • Solving Inverse Trigonometric Equations
  • To solve equations involving inverse trigonometric functions, isolate the inverse trigonometric function and apply the definition of the inverse function.
    • For example, to solve the equation 12sin⁻¹(x) = 3π, we would follow these steps:
  • sin⁻¹(x) = π/4.
  • x = sin(π/4).
  • x = √2/2.
  • Therefore, the solution set is {√2/2}.
