Also find the inverse elements of 2 and 4. [This operation is called multiplication moduls 5 and denoted by *,. In general, on a finite subset of N, x,,denotes the operation of multiplication modulo m where m isa fixed positive integer].Inverse Trigonometric Functions Mathematics possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty, cold and austere, like that of sculpture and capable of stern perfection such as only the greatest art can show. - Bertrand Russell 2.0 Introduction In earlier classes you have studied the concepts of trigonometric inisiGnas such as sine, cosine, tangent, cotangent, secant and cosecant; their domain, range and some properties. Also J z $ i 1 a you know that trigonometric functions are not one-one and onto e.g. Sin =~ = Sin". Hence in general we cannot define their inverse functions. But by suitable restriction of their domains we can make bijective functions out of them. In this chapter we shall consider the inverse trigonometric functions. These functions have extensive use in mathematics especially in integral calculus and also in engineering and technology. 2.1 Definitions : Let us first consider the function Sin: R>[-1, 1] Let y= Sin x, x € R. Look at the graph of sinx. For ye[-I, 1], there is a unique number x in each of the intervals... such that y =sin x. Hence any one of these intervals can be chosen to make sine function bijective. We usually choose [ ©] asthe domain of sine function. Thus sin : [- ze Fhe 1, 1]is bijective and hence 3] denoted by sin-'or arcsin (see foot note). admits of an inverse function with range [ Each of the above mentioned intervals as range gives rise to different branches of sin! function. The function sin with the range [- is defined below. z is called the principal branch which” Sin: [1,1] 3| oe 4] defined by y=sinx ¢> x= siny The values of y(=sin"'x) in [-s Fi -4| are called principal values of sin". * The prefix ‘arc’ in ‘arcsin x’ stands for ‘the trigonometric argument whose sine is x”. Ina unit circle it is same as an arc of measure of @ radians.
