Inverse Trig Functions
Vocabulary Inverse Cosine Function (cos -1 ) – The function y=cos -1 x = Arccos x, if and only if x = cos y and 0 ≤ y ≤ π Inverse Sine Function (sin -1 ) – The function y=sin -1 x = Arcsin x, if and only if x = sin y and - π / 2 ≤ y ≤ π / 2 Inverse Tangent Function (tan -1 ) – The function y=tan -1 x = Arctan x, if and only if x = tan y and - π ≤ y ≤ π
