In mathematics, we explore inverse functions, determine if they are also a function, and analyze their domain and range. The graphs of inverse functions are symmetric to the line y=x. By switching x and y in a function before squaring both sides, we can find the true inverse function graph. Let's delve into the concept of inverse functions and their graphical representations.

Presentation Transcript


  1. 5) Find the inverse of function Determine whether the inverse is also a function, and find the domain and the range of the inverse. Draw the inverse function if it exists. Explain the procedure and reasoning.

  2. As we know the graphs of two inverse functions are always symmetrical to the line y=x. If we graph the two functions the one that is given and its inverse( the first two). As we can see they are not symmetrical to the line y=x. That should make us think about the real inverse function graph. If we graph the third function ( the function where you switch x and y) before you square both sides you see that the green graph is exactly what we are looking for. (third slide shows with when we gain the other part of the graph ( blue one)
