8 INVERSE FUNCTION
GENERAL OBJECTIVE: WILL REVIEW THE CONCEPT OF FUNCTION
INVESTS OUR PROPERTIES.
SPECIFIC OBJECTIVE: TO GRAPH FUNCTIONS AND THEIR INVERSES IN
A SAME CARTESIAN PLANE.
INFORMAL DEFINITION OF
INVERSE:
The function it is a real function and
bijective whose domain is the
set whose image is the
setB. The function
inverse reciprocal of ,
denoted − , it is the function of
domainBe imageAy this
define:
= → − =
EXAMPLE:
= −1 = → −1 =
x = 2 → f2 = 1 y=1→f−11 = 2
x = 3 → f3 = 2 y=2→f−12 =3
x = 4 → f4 = 3 y=3→f−13 = 4
+1=x
= −1 x+1=f−1 ( )
y+1=x
EXAMPLE:
A B
1 4
3 8
Yes:
−1 (4) 5 -11
f 1 = 4.
f 3 equals 8. −1 (8) A B
f 5 = −11. Encounter f−1 (−11) 4 1
8 3
-11 5
In an inverse function, each of the ordered pairs is exchanged that is
they constitute the original function if:
, ∈ ⟺ , ∈ −1
To obtain the inverse function of a bijective function:
It is written =
[Link] changes
3. It is cleared. to find −1 ( )
EXAMPLE:
+4
1. = 10
+4 +4 +4
= 10
⇒ = ⇒
10
= 1.2x
10
= y + 4 => y = 1.2x− 4 ∴
−1= 1 x− 4
EXERCISES: find the inverse function of the following functions
graph them.
1. = 3− 5
2. = 2x+ 9

3. = 3−

4. = 6 x− 7
