Evaluating Inverse Trigonometric Functions (6.7.2) Flashcards
1
Q
• When evaluating an inverse trigonometric function:
• Think of the answer as “the angle whose _______ is….”
For example, sin–1 0.5 is equal to “the angle whose sine is 0.5.”
• Verify that the answer is in the correct range for the inverse trig function.
• The graph of the appropriate trig function is often helpful.
