INVERSE TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTIONS Inverse Trigonometric Functions: We know that the equation x=sin y ...(i) means that y is an angle whose sine is x or x is the sine of y. After solving equation (i) for y, we get y = sin x or y=arc sinx Similarly y = cos! «x ifcos y=x and y=tan"'x if x=tan y ete. The functions sin™ x, cos" x, tan” x, sec! x, cosec! x and cot! x are called inverse trigonometric functions. It is important to note that (i) sin yis anumber whereas sin”! x is an angle (ii) sin ¥ (sin xy! = — sinx Properties of inverse trigonometric functions I. Some angle can be expressed by different inverse trigonometric functions. We know that B — > 60° =sin! in 60° sin 3 cos 60° = bole => 60° = cos! (3) 2 tan 60° = 3 => 60° = tan"! (v3) {v3 1 Here, 60° = sin"! (2 = ost 5 |= ta" V3 = II. Inverse property: We know that x = cos 0, then, 0=cos! x 8 = cos"! (cos 9) (-; x = cos 0) IL. Principle of reciprocity: Following reciprocal relation exists between inverse trigonometric functions, cosec"! S = sin! x ie 1 sec! — = cos! x x 1 cot! = = tan”! x IV. Inverse trigonometric functions are odd functions within the principal values (i) sin? Cx) =- sin x (it) cosec! (-x) =—cosec! x (ai) tan x) =-tan! x V. Some fundamental formulae T (i) sin" x + cos x = a (ii) tan'x + cot! x = n/2 (iii) cosec! x + sec! x= n/2 x+ (iv) tan x + tanc'y = tan"! | y | x7y (v) tan x-tan" y= tan | 1+xy (vi) 2 tan-'x = sin"! = z l+x° _, l-x* = cos 3 14x 2x = tan! l=-x VI.
