Mathematics Notes and Formula For Class 12 Chapter 2 Inverse Trigonometric Functions

Inverse trigonometric functions are inverse functions of the standard trigonometric functions. If y = sin x, then x = sin-1 y, which is read "the inverse sine of y". Inverse trigonometric functions have a restricted domain and range, for example, sin-1 x has a domain of -1 to 1 and a range of -π/2 to π/2. The properties of inverse trigonometric functions include their periodicity, oddness/evenness, and relationships between inverse functions. Solving trigonometric equations involves finding angle values that satisfy the given equations, with principal solutions referring to the smallest positive angle values.

Mathematics Notes for Class 12 Chapter 2


Inverse Trigonometric Functions
Inverse Function
If y = f(x) and x = g(y) are two functions such that f (g(y)) = y and g (f(y)) = x, then f and y are
said to be inverse of each other
i.e., g = f-1
IF y = f(x), then x = f-1(y)
Inverse Trigonometric Functions
If y = sin X-1, then x = sin-1 y, similarly for other trigonometric functions.
This is called inverse trigonometric function .
Now, y = sin-1(x), y [ / 2 , / 2] and x [-1,1].
(i) Thus, sin-1x has infinitely many values for given x [-1, 1].
(ii) There is only one value among these values which lies in the interval [ / 2 , / 2]. This
value is called the principal value.

Trigonometric Equation
An equation involving one or more trigonometrical ratios of unknown angle is called a
trigonometric equation .
Solution/Roots of a Trigonometric Equation
A value of the unknown angle which satisfies the given equation, is called a solution or root of
the equation.
The trigonometric equation may have infinite number of solutions.
(i) Principal Solution The least value of unknown angle which satisfies the given equation,
is called a principal solution of trigonometric equation.

(ii) General Solution We know that, trigonometric function are periodic and solution of
trigonometric equations can be generalised with the help of the periodicity of the trigonometric
functions. The solution consisting of all possible solutions of a trigonometric equation is called
its general solution.

Important Points to be Remembered


(i) While solving an equation, we have to square it, sometimes the resulting roots does not
satisfy the original equation.
(ii) Do not cancel common factors involving the unknown angle on LHS and RHS.Because it
may be the solution of given equation.
(iii) (a) Equation involving sec or tan can never be a solution of the form (2n + 1) / 2.
