Introduction
How steep is an inclined plane?
Have you ever asked this when cycling up a mountain?

Image 1 Bicycle on an inclined plane
These questions can be answered using mathematics, specifically: trigonometric
inverse functions and some measurable information. This document will pay special
attention to some characteristics of trigonometric functions.
A function is the transformation of a given set of values into another given set of
values. The boxes represent the sets and the arrow is the transformation.
What inverse functions do is to invert the transformation process.

To determine how steep is an inclined plane, it is necessary to define inverse
trigonometric functions as well as graphing these functions with the use of graphing
software that allows determining basic trigonometric ratios and delivering geometric
arguments.

SKILL 1: Identify the definition of inverse trigonometric functions.
SKILL 2: Recognize the characteristics required to fin the inverse of a function.
SKILL 6: Establish relationships between trigonometric functions and their inverse by
comparisons.
Angle of inclination. What is an inverse trigonometric function?
If in a right triangle we can find the length of a segment knowing the measurement of one
acute angle and one of the other two sides, applying the inverse process means that one
of the acute angles can be found knowing the relation between two sides.
The inverse process is done using inverse trigonometric functions. When comparing
the domain and range of a function and its inverse we can observe:
Image shows how the domain of the inverse function 𝑓(π‘₯) = π‘Žπ‘Ÿπ‘π‘ π‘–π‘›π‘’ (π‘₯) is the same as the
range of 𝑓(π‘₯) = 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑒 (π‘₯)and the domain of 𝑓(π‘₯) = 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑒 (π‘₯) is the same as the range of the
inverse function𝑓(π‘₯) = π‘Žπ‘Ÿπ‘π‘ π‘–π‘›π‘’ (π‘₯). The range of the inverse function is the domain of the
original function and the domain of the inverse function is the range of the original
function.
For example, in the function 𝑓(π‘₯) = 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑒(π‘₯) with an angle of πœ‹/2 radians, the result is
πœ‹
πœ‹
𝑓 ( 2 ) = 𝑠𝑒𝑛 ( 2 ) = 1 and the inverse function 𝑓(π‘₯) = π‘Žπ‘Ÿπ‘π‘ π‘–π‘›π‘’(π‘₯) with and angle of 1 radian,
πœ‹
the result is𝑓(1) = π‘Žπ‘Ÿπ‘π‘ π‘–π‘›π‘’π‘œ (1) = 2 .
It Works the same with the other 5 trigonometric functions and their inverse. For
example, 𝑓(π‘₯) = π‘‘π‘Žπ‘›π‘”π‘’π‘›π‘‘ (π‘₯), with a value of
πœ‹

radians will result in 𝑓 ( ) = π‘‘π‘Žπ‘›π‘”π‘’π‘›π‘‘ ( ) = 1,
and the inverse function 𝑓(π‘₯) = π‘Žπ‘Ÿπ‘π‘‘π‘Žπ‘›π‘”π‘’π‘›π‘‘(π‘₯) with a value of 1 radian will result in 𝑓(1) =
πœ‹
π‘Žπ‘Ÿπ‘π‘‘π‘Žπ‘›π‘”π‘’π‘›π‘‘ (1) =

Consider this: In groups of three answer:
Is it necessary to limit the domain to determine the inverse function?
How is the domain of a function determined?
An inverse function can exist only when it is a bijective function: a bijective function has
one element in the domain that corresponds only to one element in the range, and for
each element in the range there can only be one corresponding element in the domain.
This is called a one-to-one correspondence and it is shown in the following image:
Trigonometric functions are periodic and allow elements in the domain to have several
πœ‹
3πœ‹
images in the range. For example: πΆπ‘œπ‘ π‘–π‘›π‘’ 2 , has the same value as πΆπ‘œπ‘ π‘–π‘›π‘’ 2 restricting
πœ‹ πœ‹
the domain to the interval [βˆ’ 2 , 2 ] transforming it into a bijective function.

Representation of trigonometric functions and their inverse
The representation of a function is the different ways certain information can be
represented; an inverse function can be represented algebraically and graphically, on a
coordinate plane, and more.
The algebraic representations are:
Trigonometric function
y = sine (x)
y = cosine (x)
y = tangent (x)
Representations
βˆ’1
𝑦 = 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑒 (π‘₯)
𝑦 = πΆπ‘œπ‘ π‘–π‘›π‘’ βˆ’1 (π‘₯)
𝑦 = π‘‡π‘Žπ‘›π‘”π‘’π‘›π‘‘ βˆ’1 (π‘₯)
𝑦 = π‘Žπ‘Ÿπ‘π‘ π‘–π‘›π‘’ (π‘₯)
𝑦 = π‘Žπ‘Ÿπ‘π‘π‘œπ‘ π‘–π‘›π‘’ (π‘₯)
𝑦 = π‘Žπ‘Ÿπ‘π‘‘π‘Žπ‘›π‘”π‘’π‘›π‘‘ (π‘₯)
The graphic representations shown below allow the comparison between the behavior of
the function and its inverse. As seen before, the domain has been restricted so that there
is an inverse function.

Class activity:
In groups of three, graph the trigonometric functions of secant, cosecant and cotangent
and their inverse functions. Determine the domain and range of each of them and draw
conclusions from the comparison. Share these conclusions with your classmates.
Application of inverse trigonometric functions
The characteristics and conditions required for there to be an inverse function have been
established. Now you will see how inverse functions are applied in a real situation using an
inclined planed; the slope of a mountain path.
The inclined plane creates a right triangle which allows the use of trigonometric ratios
(trigonometric ratios can only be used in right triangles).
Remember that: trigonometric ratios are commonly known as the quotient of the sides of
a right triangle.

π΄π‘‘π‘—π‘Žπ‘π‘’π‘›π‘‘ 𝑠𝑖𝑑𝑒
If the biker knows the length of the path is 25 meters and that the altitude will go from
1500 meters to 1515 meters above sea level, the following information can be found:
𝑆𝑖𝑛𝑒 πœƒ =
15 π‘œπ‘π‘π‘œπ‘ π‘–π‘‘π‘’ 𝑠𝑖𝑑𝑒
,
25 β„Žπ‘¦π‘π‘œπ‘‘π‘’π‘›π‘’π‘ π‘’
𝑆𝑖𝑛𝑒 πœƒ = 0,6
πœƒ = π‘Žπ‘Ÿπ‘π‘ π‘–π‘›π‘’ (0,6)
Use your calculator to find the value of the angle which corresponds to the angle of
inclination.

The mathematical process gives a result of 36.86° of inclination for the biker´s path.
To find the complementary angle (sum of angles equals 90°) β€œΞ²β€ we use the following
ratio:
πΆπ‘œπ‘ π‘–π‘›π‘’ 𝛽 =
π΄π‘‘π‘—π‘Žπ‘π‘’π‘›π‘‘ 𝑠𝑖𝑑𝑒
π»π‘¦π‘π‘œπ‘‘π‘’π‘›π‘’π‘ π‘’
The opposite side for angle 𝛽 is 15 meters (height). Substituting the values:
πΆπ‘œπ‘ π‘–π‘›π‘’ 𝛽 =
15
25
πΆπ‘œπ‘ π‘–π‘›π‘’ 𝛽 = 0,6
𝛽 = π΄π‘Ÿπ‘π‘π‘œπ‘ π‘–π‘›π‘’ 0,6

Glossary
Domain: the domain of a function or relation is the set of all possible independent values
that a relation can have. It is the collection of all possible inputs. (Instituto de Monterey,
2010).
Range: the range of a function or relation is the set of all possible values dependent
relation can produce. It is the collection of all possible outputs.(Instituto de Monterey,
2010).
Injective: It means that each element of the range "B" has at most one corresponding
element of the domain "A" (but this does not tell us that all elements of "B" have any of
"A"). (Disfruta Las Matemáticas.com, 2011).
Surjective: It means that each element of the range "B" has at least one element of the
domain "A" (maybe more than one). (Disfruta Las Matemáticas.com, 2011).
Bijective: It means being injective and surjective at the same time. So there is a perfect
match "one to one" relation between the elements of both sets. (Disfruta Las
Matemáticas.com, 2011).
