FUNCTIONS
 OBJECTIVES

At the end of this lesson, learners will

be able to:

 evaluates inverse trigonometric expressions

 solve trigonometric equations

In order to use inverse trigonometric functions, we
need to understand that an inverse trigonometric
function “undoes” what the original trigonometric
function “does,” as is the case with any other function
and its inverse. In other words, the domain of the
inverse function is the range of the original function,
and vice versa
For example, if f(x) = sin x, then we would write f 1(x) = sin-1x.
Be aware that sin-1x does not mean . The following examples
illustrate the inverse trigonometric functions:
Since sin = , then = sin-1 .
Since cos () = -1 , then = cos-1 .
Since tan = 1, then = tan-1 .
Recall that, for a one-to-one function, if f(a) = b, then
an inverse function would satisfy f -1(b) = a
The graph of each function would fail the horizontal line test. In fact, no periodic function
can be one-to-one because each output in its range corresponds to at least one input in every
period, and there are an infinite number of periods. As with other functions that are not one-to-
one, we will need to restrict the domain of each function to yield a new function that is one-to-
one. We choose a domain for each function that includes the number 0. The figures below show
the graph of the sine function limited to and the graph of the cosine function limited to (0, ).
Figure 1. (a) Sine function on a restricted domain of ; (b) Cosine function on a
restricted domain of (0, ).
Figure 2 Tangent function on a
restricted domain of .
These conventional choices for the restricted
domain are somewhat arbitrary, but they have
important, helpful characteristics. Each domain
includes the origin and some positive values, and
most importantly, each results in a one-to-one
function that is invertible. The conventional choice
for the restricted domain of the tangent function
also has the useful property that it extends from
one vertical asymptote to the next instead of being
divided into two parts by an asymptote.
 On these restricted domains, we can define the inverse
trigonometric functions.

 The inverse sine function y = sin -1 x means x = sin y. The inverse

sine function is sometimes called the arcsine function, and
notated arcsin x.
 The inverse cosine function y = cos -1 x means x = cos y. The
inverse cosine function is sometimes called the arccosine
function, notated arccos x.
 The inverse tangent function y = tan -1 x means x = tan y. The
inverse tangent function is sometimes called the arctangent
function, and notated arctan x.
EVALUATING AN
INVERSE
TRIGONOMETRIC
EXPRESSIONS
Trigonometric functions are functions of an angle. They are used to relate
the angles of a triangle to the lengths of the sides of a triangle. In a right
triangle, the three main trigonometric functions are sine, cosine, and
tangent whose values are exposed as a ratio of two sides of the right
triangle that contains the angle.

Let (4, 3) be a point on the terminal side of . Find the values of the six trigonometric
functions. See figure 3.
We can see that,
x=4 ; y=3 and r=

r=
r=
r= 5
So, we have the following:

= = = = = =

= = = = = =

= = = = = =
 Example: Evaluate y = sin -1

Solutions: Now, sine of what angle is equal to ? Using

the unit circle, we can see that the angle that gives
us sin is = 45 and = 135. Note that each point in
the unit circle can be written as (cos, sin). The
answer will be reflected on the range . Since = 135
is not on this range, the angle must be = 45.

Hence, sin -1
= = 45.
 Example: Evaluate y = cos -1

Solutions: Now, cosine of what angle is equal to ?

Using the unit circle, we can see that the angle that
gives us cos is = 120 and = 240. Note that each
point in the unit circle can be written as (cos, sin).
The answer will always be reflected on the range
(0,). Since = 240 is not on this range, the angle must
be = 120.

Hence, cos -1
= = 120.
Important Note:
We should always remember that there is a subtle distinction between finding
inverse trigonometric functions and solving for trigonometric functions.

If we want sin -1
for example, we only pick answers from Quadrants I and IV, so we
get . But if we are solving sin x = like solving trigonometric functions, we get and in the
interval (0, ); there are no domain restrictions. Understanding the unit circle is very
important in evaluating inverse trigonometric expressions.
 SOLVING
TRIGONOMETRIC
EQUATIONS
Tips in solving trigonometric equations:
1. If the equation contains only one trigonometric term, isolate that term, and solve
for the variable.
2. If the equation is quadratic in form, we may use factoring, finding the square roots,
or the quadratic formula.
3. Rewrite the equation to have 0 on one side, and then factor (if appropriate) the
expressions on the other side.
4. If the equation contains more than one trigonometric function, try to express
everything in terms of one trigonometric function. Here, identities are useful.
5. If half or multiple angles are present, express them in terms of a trigonometric
expression of a single angle, except when all angles involved have the same
multiplicity wherein, in this case, retain the angle. Half-angle and double-angle
identities are useful in simplification.
Example

Solve the equation 2 sin x – 1 = 0

Solution:
2 sin x – 1 = 0 Given

2 sin x – 1 + 1= 0 + 1 Add 1 to both sides

2 sin x = 1
= Divide both sides with 2
sin x = Equivalent equation

x = sin -1
Solve for x

Using the trigonometric values or solving with

x = and x = scientific calculator in radian
Note:
 For 0 x 2, the solution of sin x = are x = and x = .
 Any angle that is co terminal with or will be a solution of the
equation.
 Because the period of sine and cosine function is 2, the complete
solution of the equation are x = + k (2) and x = + k (2), for all
integer k.
 Example
Solve the equation 3 tan x – 3 = 0

Solution:
3 tan x – 3 = 0 Given

3 tan x – 3+3 = 0+3 Add 3 to both sides

3 tan
x=3 = Divide both sides with 3

tan x = 1 Equivalent equation

x = tan -1
1 Solve for x
x= Using the table of trigonometric values or
solving with scientific calculator in radian.
Note:
 Tangent function is a one-period interval so the complete solution for this trigonometric equation is x = + k(), for
all integer k.
Example

Solve the equation 2 cos x tan x = 2 cos x

Solution:
2 cos x tan x = 2 cos x Given
2 cos x tan x – 2 cos x = 2 cos x – 2 cos x Add -2 cos x on both sides
2 cos x tan x – 2 cos x = 0
