Section 8.1: The Inverse Sine, Cosine, and Tangent
Functions
• The function y = sin x doesn’t pass the horizontal line test, so it doesn’t have
an inverse for every real number.
But if we restrict the function to only on
π
cycle; i.e., to the interval −π
,
, the the function is one-to-one and so it
2 2
does have an inverse.
• Def: The inverse sine, also called the arcsine, is the function y = sin−1 x =
arcsin x, which is the inverse of the function x = sin y. The domain of the
inverse sine is −1 ≤ x ≤ 1 and the range is − π2 ≤ y ≤ π2 . The graph of
y = sin−1 x looks like:
• Since sin x and sin−1 x are inverses of each other, we have the following relationships:
1. sin−1 (sin x) = x, provided that − π2 ≤ x ≤ π2 .
2. sin sin−1 x = x, provided that −1 ≤ x ≤ 1.
In the first equation, if x is not between − π2 and π2 , then you first need to
figure out which quadrant x is in. If x is in quadrants I or IV, then change
x to its coterminal angle which is between − π2 and π2 . If x is in quadrant II,
change x for its reference angle. If x is in quadrant III, change x to the angle
in quadrant IV which has the same reference angle as x.
In the second equation, if x is not between −1 and 1, then the composition
is undefined.
• Def: The inverse cosine, also called the arccosine, is the function y = cos−1 x =
arccos x, which is the inverse of the function x = cos y. The domain of the
1
inverse cosine is −1 ≤ x ≤ 1 and the range is 0 ≤ y ≤ π. The graph of
y = cos−1 x looks like:
• Since cos x and cos−1 x are inverses of each other, we have the following
relationships:
1. cos−1 (cos x) = x, provided that 0 ≤ x ≤ π.
2. cos (cos−1 x) = x, provided that −1 ≤ x ≤ 1.
In the first equation, if x is not between 0 and π, then you first need to figure
out which quadrant x is in. If x is in quadrants I or II, then change x to its
coterminal angle which is between 0 and π. If x is in quadrant III, change x
to the angle in quadrant II which has the same reference angle as x. If x is
in quadrant IV, then change x for its reference angle.
In the second equation, if x is not between −1 and 1, then the composition
is undefined.
• Def: The inverse tangent, also called the arctangent, is the function y =
tan−1 x = arctan x, which is the inverse of the function x = tan y. The
domain of the inverse tangent is −∞ < x < ∞ and the range is − π2 < y < π2 .
The graph of y = tan−1 x looks like:

• Since tan x and tan−1 x are inverses of each other, we have the following
relationships:
1. tan−1 (tan x) = x, provided that − π2 < x < π2 .
2. tan (tan−1 x) = x, provided that −∞ < x < ∞.
In the first equation, if x is not between − π2 and π2 , then you first need to
figure out which quadrant x is in. If x is in quadrants I or IV, then change
x to its coterminal angle which is between − π2 and π2 . If x is in quadrant
II then change x to the angle in quadrant IV which has the same reference
angle as x. If x is in quadrant III, then change x for its reference angle.

(Continued)
• Def: The inverse secant, also called the arcsecant, is the function y = sec−1 x =
arcsec x, which is the inverse of the function x = sec
of the
y. The domain
inverse secant is (−∞, 1] ∪ [1, ∞) and the range is 0, π2 ∪ π2 , π .
• Def: The inverse cosecant, also called the arccosecant, is the function y =
csc−1 x = arccsc x, which is the inverse of the function x = csc
y.π The
domain
of the inverse cosecant is (−∞, 1] ∪ [1, ∞) and the range is − 2 , 0 ∪ 0, π2 .
• Def: The inverse cotangent, also called the arccotangent, is the function
y = cot−1 x = arccot x, which is the inverse of the function x = tan y. The
domain of the inverse tangent is −∞ < x < ∞ and the range is 0 < y < π.
• Note: The inverse of a trig function is asking what angle in the domain would
be needed to give the trig value the given value. So to find the exact value
of a trig expression involving a trig function composed with an inverse trig
function which are not inverses of each other, use the inverse trig function to
draw a right triangle and use the triangle to solve the problem.
