    Question no .

    What is the domain and range of y = arcsin x and arccosx?


    Solution:
    The domain of y = arcsin x is [-1,1]
    Range of y = arcsin x = [-pi/2, pi/2]

    Domain of y = arccos x = [-1,1]


    Range of y = arccos x = [0, pi]

    Question no .7

    , find all possible values of  in the range -180 ≤  ≤ 180.


    3
    Given that sin  
    2
    Solution:
    3
      sin 1 ( )  60
    2
    Also by using symmetry property:
    sin(180   )  sin( )  sin(180  (60))  sin(240) to get 240 as a solution.
    Note that 240 must be a solution but it does not lies in our range -180 ≤  ≤ 180.
    Now use the periodic property: sin(240) = sin(240 - 360). So another solution is -
    120degrees.
    All the solutions are  60 and  120 degrees.
