Vocabulary radical function square-root function
Recall that exponential and logarithmic functions are inverse functions. Quadratic and cubic functions have inverses as well. The graphs below show the inverses of the quadratic parent function and cubic parent function.
A radical function is a function whose rule is a radical expression. A square-root function is a radical function involving . The square-root parent function is . The cube-root parent function is . Notice that the inverses of f(x) = x2 is not a function because it fails the vertical line test. However, if we limit the domain of f(x) = x2 to x ≥ 0, its inverse is the function .
