Inverse functions have three
properties:
1.The x and y values are
interchanged.
2.The graphs are reflective over y=x
3.They “undo” one another.
4.A function has an inverse function
if and only if it is one-to-one.
Example 1:
.
Steps in Obtaining the Inverse
of a Function
1. Change to .
2. Interchange the variables and .
3. Solve for in terms of .
4. Change from Step 3 to .
Example2:
•Consider the function . Let us find
its inverse.
