4. Verify whether it’s an inverse function or not
 Inverse
Relations
Inverse relation is when you switch
the x and y components.
For example, (12,3) the inverse is
(3,12)
 More examples
Find the inverse
relation of (7,44), The ordered pairs of the
(69,121) and relation {(3, 9), (7, 21), (8,
0)} are the coordinates of
(66,20,
the vertices of a rectangle.
{(44,7),(121,69), Find the inverse of this
(20,66)} relation.
{(9,3), (21,7),(0,8)}
Note:
Dont forget to
add {}
 Now we’ll talk about property of inverses

If f and f^-1 are inverse, then f(a)= b if and only if

f(b)=a

Example 1
 Important Notes!
We have 4 steps to
find the inverse of a
function 1) Change 2)
f(x) to y
interchange
x&y

3) Isolate y 4) change
(you need to y to f(x)^-1
solve for y)

 Word problem

Word problem 1

VOLUME Eon wants to make a spherical

water cooler that can hold half a cubic meter
of water. He knows that the formula is v =
4/3 πr^3. Find the inverse.
Solving
 2 functions f and
functions if and o g are inverse
their composition nly if both of
function a re the identity

Identity function is
equal to x
 Important things to remember

● To determine whether 2 functions are inverse you

need to find the composition
● {fog} and {gof}
● The answer NEEDS to be x if it’s not x then they are
not inverse
