Day 12: Inverses
4
Objective To find the inverse of a relation using: A mapping diagram A table An equation To determine if an inverse relation is a function using: A mapping diagram A table A graph An equation
5
Inverse Relations What is an inverse relation? A relation that “undoes” a relation or function The inverse of any relation is written as: Domain (x – values) Range (y – values) xf(x)f(x) 0 1 2 2 4 6 8 2 4 6 8 0 1 2 Function: Inverse: “inverse of f”
6
Inverse Relations Another way to think about it: Inverses switch the domain & range of a relation DOMAIN RANGE 0 1 2 24682468 Relation: (-1, 2), (0, 4), (1, 6), (2, 8) Inverse: (2, -1), (4, 0), (6, 1), (8, 2) Relation DOMAIN RANGE 0 1 2 24682468 Inverse Is the relation and/or the inverse a function? Yes, all elements in both domains correspond to one element in the range
7
Find the inverse of the given relation. State if the relation and/or its inverse are functions. DOMAIN RANGE 4 0 5 -3 2 -6 9 xy 35 -6-3 21 -6-4 Inverse: xy 53 -3-6 12 -4-6 DOMAIN RANGE 4 0 5 -3 2 -6 9 FUNCTION NOT A FUNCTION FUNCTION
8
Step 3: solve for y Step 2: switch x and y Find the inverse of the function. Step 1: put “y” for “f(x)” Step 4: Write using inverse notation Determine if the inverse is a function. Yes, the inverse is a function because all lines pass the VLT.
9
Inverse Relations as Functions If two equations are inverses, you will be able to apply the function, then its inverse and get back to the original value. Find Both f(g(x)) = x and g(f(x)) = x to be inverses.
10
Find the inverse and determine if it is a function. Determine if the two functions are inverses. Choose any value for x and see if No, the functions are not inverses. Yes, the inverse is a function because all lines are functions. Both f(g(x)) = x and g(f(x)) = x to be inverses.
11
Inverse Relations Function: Inverse: xf(x)f(x) 2 04 16 28 All inverses have a line of symmetry at y = x
12
Determine if the graphs depict functions and their inverses. Yes, the graphs show functions & inverses because there is a line of symmetry at y = x. No, the graphs do not show functions & inverses because there is no line of symmetry at y = x.
13
Properties of Inverses If a relation maps a onto b; then an inverse “undoes” the relation and maps b back onto a The domain of the relation is the range of the inverse. The range of the relation is the domain of the inverse. Graphs of relations & inverses have a line of symmetry at the equation y = x Domain of f Range of f -1 Range of f Domain of f -1 a b f f -1
