Enrich · Mathematics Extension 1 11–12 – Year 12 · Inverse trigonometric functions

Enrich Examine the graphs of the composite functions (y = sin)^(- 1)⁡(sin⁡x), (y = cos)^(- 1)⁡(cos⁡x) and (y = tan)^(- 1)⁡(tan⁡x), establish the values of x for which the formulas sin^(- 1)⁡(sin⁡x) = x, cos^(- 1)⁡(cos⁡x) = x and tan^(- 1)⁡(tan⁡x) = x are true, and apply the formulas to solve problems, simplify expressions and prove results

Extension and enrichment for students who are ready to go deeper: rich tasks, problem solving and open-ended challenges.
