It is sometimes easier to compute the derivative of the inverse function and invert for the derivative of the function itself. Also, the inverse function rule can be used numerically even when the formula for the inverse function is not known. However, some functions do not have expressions ...
Find the derivative of the inverse of function \( f \) given by \[ f(x)= \dfrac{x}{2} - 1 \] We presentto answer the above question. In the first method we calculate the inverse function and then its derivative. In the second method, we use the formula developed above. The fir...

Here is some practice at using the formula for the derivative of the inverse function. Conversion of variables will be a little more trouble with trig functions, but how else would you find the derivative? Hint 21.6. d ArcTan[y]dy We know that if y = Tan[x], then dydx=1(Cos[x]...
The derivative of an inverse function can be found using this formula: $[ (f^{-1})'(x) = \frac{1}{f'(f^{-1}(x))} ]$ Example: Derivative of $( f(x) = \ln(x) )$ The inverse of $( f(x) = \ln(x) )$ is $( f^{-1}(x) = e^x )$. ...
To find the derivative of the inverse function, we use the derivative formula for the inverse functions. Answer and Explanation: Let {eq}\; f(-4)= 2 \; {/eq} . So we have {eq}\; f^{-1}( 2)= -4 \; {/eq}. The function has the derivati...

4. Let g(x) = (x –1)/(x + 2). Calculate the derivative of the inverse of g at x = 0 in two ways: a. By determining the inverse function and differentiating it. b. By using the formula for the derivative of an inverse function. Solution...
Ify=f(x) is continuous and monotonie in a neighborhood ofx=x0and has a nonzero derivativef’(x0) atx= x0, thenf–1(y) is differentiable aty=y0, and [f–1(y0)]’ = 1/f’(x0) (the differentiation formula for an inverse function). Thus, for –π/2 <x< π/2,y=f(x) =...
