Inverse Relations and Functions Unit 1 Lesson 7
Inverse Relations and Functions Students will be able to: Find inverse functions. Solve an equation of the form ? ? = c for a simple function ? that has an inverse and write an expression for the inverse. Verify by composition that one function is the inverse of another. Read values of an inverse function from a graph or a table, given that the function has an inverse. Produce an invertible function from a non-invertible function by restricting the domain.
Inverse Relations and Functions Key Vocabulary: Inverse function One-to one function Horizontal line test
Inverse Relations and Functions The inverse of a relation is a relation obtained by reversing or swapping the coordinates of each ordered pair in the relation. If the relation is described by an equation in the variables ? and ?, the equation of the inverse relation is obtained by replacing every ? in the equation with ? and every ? in the equation with ?.
Inverse Relations and Functions If ? ? represents a function of ?, the inverse of the function is represented by the symbol ? ?? . ? ? ?? ? ?.

Inverse Relations and Functions Horizontal Line Test A function ? has an inverse function ? ? if and only if each horizontal line intersects the graph of the function in at most one point. If a function passes the horizontal line test, then it is said to be one-to-one, because no ?-value is matched with more than one ?-value and no ?-value is matched with more than one ? -value. .
Inverse Relations and Functions Horizontal Line Test If a function ? is one-to-one, it has an inverse function ? ? such that the domain of ? is equal to the range of ? ?, and the range of ? is equal to the domain of ? ?. .

Inverse Relations and Functions Sample Problem 2: Use a horizontal line test to determine whether of the graph of each function is a one-to-one function. a. ? ? = ?? ? y 5 Because we can draw at least one horizontal line that intersects the graph more than once, ? ? = ?? ? is not a one-to-one function. Therefore the inverse of ? ? = ?? ? is a relation, but not a function. 4 3 2 1 x -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 1 2 3 4 5 -1 -2 -3 -4 -5

Inverse Relations and Functions Sample Problem 2: Use a horizontal line test to determine whether of the graph of each function is a one-to-one function. b. ? ? = ??+ ? y 5 Because every horizontal line we draw intersects the graph only once, ? ? = ??+ ? is a one-to-one function. Therefore the inverse of ? ? = ??+ ? is a function. 4 3 2 1 x -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 1 2 3 4 5 -1 -2 -3 -4 -5
Inverse Relations and Functions Step by Step Procedure to Find the Inverse of ? ? 1. Determine whether the function has an inverse by checking to see if it is one-to-one. 2. Replace ? ? with ?. 3. Interchange ? and ?. 4. Solve for ?.
Inverse Relations and Functions Step by Step Procedure to Find the Inverse of ? ? 5. Replace ? with ? ?? . 6. State any restrictions on the domain of ? ?? . Sometimes only part of the function you find algebraically may be the inverse function of ?. Therefore, be sure to analyze the domain of ? when finding ? ?.
Inverse Relations and Functions The graphs of the function and the inverse function are reflections across the line ? = ?.
