    Inverse Functions

    Uploaded by

    Tony Wong
    This document discusses inverse functions and their properties. It states that the domain of a function f is the range of its inverse f-1, and the range of f is the domain of f-1. It also notes that the square function x2 does not have an inverse function defined for all real numbers, but if we restrict the domain to x≥0 or x≤0, inverses do exist. The inverse functions are √x and -√x, respectively. Additionally, it describes how the graph of a function and its inverse are reflections of each other across the line y=x.

    Inverse Functions Domain of f ---> Range of f Range of f-1 ---> Domain of f-1 x2 does not have an inverse function If we restrict the domain of x2 to x0 then an inverse function exists For x0, f(x) = x2. Therefore, f-1(x) = x If we restrict the domain of x2 to x 0 then the inverse function would be f-1(x) = - x f * f-1(x) = x = f-1 * f(x) A function and its inverse f-1(x) are reflections of each other in the line y = x. The graph of y=f(-x) is a reflection of y=f(x) in the y-axis The graph of y = -f(x) is a reflection of y=f(x) in the x-axis To draw y=f(IxI) draw y=f(x) for x0 then reflect in the y-axis To draw y=If(x)I draw y=f(x) and reflect any part below the x-axis above the x-axis
