Evaluating the Inverse of a Function, Given a Graph of the Original Function The domain of a function can be read by observing the horizontal extent of its graph. We find the domain of the inverse function by observing theverticalextent of the graph of the original function, because this cor...

The graph of an inverse functionThe graph of the inverse of a function f(x) can be found as follows: Reflect the graph about the x-axis, then rotate it 90° counterclockwise(If we take the graph on the left to be the right-hand branch of y = x2, then the graph on the right ...
The vertical line test determines whether a graph is the graph of a function. The horizontal line test determines whether a function is one-to-one ((Figure)). Rule: Horizontal Line Test A function ff is one-to-one if and only if every horizontal line intersects the graph of ff no more...
f is written as f –1: note that this does not mean ‘1 over f ’. The graph of y = f –1(x) is the reflection in y = x of the graph of y = f (x).例题：To find the inverse of a function x → y (i) interchange x and y(ii) find y in terms of x.小试牛刀：
When working with theinverse of a function, we learned that the inverse of a function can be formed by reflecting the graph over the identity liney = x. We also learned that the inverse of a function may not necessarily be another function. ...

Step 2:Identify the domain and range of the given function. Step 3:The inverse of a quadratic function is a square root function. To graph the inverse, we swap the domain and range. The shape of the graph is the same, only rotated so that it has the doma...
Inverse Functions: A function \(f\) from a set \(X\) to a set \(Y\) assigns exactly one element of \(Y\) to each element of \(X\). The set \(X\) is referred to as the domain of \(f\), and the set \(Y\) is the co-domain of \(f\). This function is called a ...
