Inverse Trigonometric
Functions
Objectives:
1. To define inverse trigonometric
functions.
2. To evaluate inverse trigonometric
functions.
3. To graph inverse trigonometric
functions.
Remember, to find the rule for an
inverse function, you interchange the
x and y and solve for y.
In the case of y = sin x, solving
x = sin y for y requires a symbol for
the inverse. Mathematicians use the
notation y = sin-1 x or y = arcsin x.
This notation means “y is the angle
whose sine is x.”
The notation sin-1 indicates an angle!
Consider the sin function. Since the
function is not one-to-one the inverse
is not a function.

By reflecting Sin x across the line y =

EXAMPLE 1 y = Sin-1 1. Find y.
y = Sin-1 1 is an equivalent expression to
sin y = 1. In other words, we want to know
the angle whose sin is 1. Since the “s” in
sin is capitalized we want the angle from

Cos-1 3/4 represents an angle in [0, ].
Since 3/4 is positive it is a first quadrant
angle. Therefore you have the following
