C3 Flashcards
What is domain of function
x values ↔ e.g -1
What is the range of a function
y values ↨ e.g f(x) > -5
What is the order for function fg(x)
First g then f = f [ g(x) ]
When do functions have an inverse
when f(x) is one-one
How do you find inverse equation
- Rearrange to make x the subject
2. Switch y and x
What is the range and domain for inverse functions
Inverse domain= normal range
Inverse range= normal domain
How do you solve modulus equations e.g | 9-x^2 |=5
- First solve equation removing modulus sign
2. Then switch the sign of the modulus parts and solve it again.
How do you make modulus graphs on calculator
- Graph section
- OPTN
- Num
- ABS
- Brackets around the equations.
Describe the inverse graph sin-1(x)
- domain -1< x <1
- range -pi/2 < sin^-1(x) < pi/2
- < should be the same or equal to sign
Describe the inverse graph tan^-1(x)
- domain- all real numbers
2. Range -pi/2 < tan-1(x)
Describe the inverse graph cos-1 (x)
- Domain -1< x <1
- Range 0< cos^-1(x)< pi
- < should be the same or equal to sign
What is 1/sin(x) and describe the graph
- cosec(x)
- The graph is separate curves that start at the points where the sin(x) meet 1 and -1.
- Asymptotes where sin (x) graph met x-axis
What is 1/cos(x) and describe the graph
- Sec (x)
- The graph is separate curves that start at the points where the cos(x) meet 1 and -1.
- Asymptotes where cos (x) graph met x-axis
What is 1/tan(x) and describe the graph
- Cot(x)
- reflections of the tan(x) graph
- Look at it as it is hard to describe
What is the relationship between e^x and ln(x)
They are inverse functions so cancel each other out
