6.4 Inverses of the Trigonometric FunctionsDay 1 Do Now Solve for x Sin x = -1/2 Tan x = 1
Quiz Review • Retakes by?
Inverse Trig Functions • Recall: how to find inverse functions (switch x and y) • Problem: If we switch x and y, the inverse fails the vertical line test • (Draw picture here)
Inverse Trig Functions • The 3 inverse trig functions (other 3 are reciprocals): • 1) • 2) • 3)
Domain an Range • To make these functions, we need to restrict the domain and range DomainRange [-1, 1] [-1, 1]
Evaluating Inverse Trig Functions • When evaluating these functions, we want to find the angle that results in the value. • Note: because of the restriction in the ranges, we can only consider angles in each range
ex • Find each of the following function values • 1) • 2) • 3)
Calculators • Calculators can be used to find inverse trig values • Inverse sin,cos,tan – buttons • Inverse reciprocals – your input will be the reciprocal
Ex • Approximate using a calculator • 1) • 2) • 3)
Closure • Evaluate in radians and degrees • HW: p.575 #1-35 odds
6.4 Inverse Trig FunctionsDay 2 • Do Now • Evaluate in radians and degrees • 1) • 2)
Composition of Trig and Inverse Functions • When evaluating a composition of trig and inverse trig values, compute the ‘inside’ first. • Keep in mind the domain and range of each composition
Ex1 • Simplify
Ex2 • Simplify
Ex3 • Simplify
Ex4 • Simplify
Ex5 • Simplify
Ex6 • Simplify
Simplifying Compositions with X • When simplifying a composition with a variable, draw a right triangle with an angle that has the given ratio
Ex • Find
Ex • Evaluate
Closure • Evaluate • HW: p.575 #37-67 odds
