Examples: Evaluate the following EXACTLY:
a) Cos-1(1/2)
b) Arcsin(1/2)
c) Tan-1(3)
d) Cos-1(-3/2)
e) Sin-1(-3/2)
f) Sin-1(3/2)
g) Tan-1(-1)
h) Arccos(-2/2)
i) Tan-1(-3/3)

Determine if the following statements are True T or False
F. Explain WHY.
To do these we MUST KNOW the domain and range of
the trig functions
Domain
Range
y  sin 1 x
y  cos 1 x
y  tan 1 x
f ( f 1 ( x))  x only if x in the domain of composition i.e
in the domain of f-1 and range of f
f 1 ( f ( x))  x only if x in the domain of composition i.e
in the domain of f and range of f-1
This means,
Composition
Sin-1(sin x) = x
Cos-1(cos x) = x
Tan-1(tan x) = x
sin(Sin-1 x) = x
cos(Cos-1 x) = x
tan(Tan-1 x) = x
Only when
 x
0 x 
 x
1  x  1

Example:
a) Arcsin(sin(π/3))= π/3
because
b) Arcsin(sin(7π/6))= 7π/6
because
True / False
True / False
c) cos-1(cos(2π/3))= 2π/3 True / False
because
d) cos-1(cos(-π/3))= -π/3
because
True / False
e) cos(cos-1(-1/2))=-1/2
because
True / False
