Lesson summary

Let's remember when we come across such a concept as an inverse function. For example, consider the squaring function. Suppose we have a square room with sides of 2 meters and we want to calculate its area. To do this, using the formula for the square of the square, we raise the two to a square and as a result we get 4 m 2. Now let's imagine the inverse problem: we know the area of \u200b\u200ba square room and we want to find the lengths of its sides. If we know that the area is still the same 4 m 2, then we will perform the reverse action to squaring - extracting the arithmetic square root, which will give us a value of 2 m.

Thus, for the function of squaring a number, the inverse function is to extract the arithmetic square root.

Specifically, in the above example, we had no problems calculating the side of the room, since we understand that this is a positive number. However, if we break away from this case and consider the problem in a more general way: “Calculate a number whose square is four”, we will face a problem - there are two such numbers. These are 2 and -2 because is also equal to four. It turns out that the inverse problem in the general case is solved ambiguously, and the action of determining the number that squared gave us the number we know? has two results. It is convenient to show it on the chart:

And this means that we cannot call such a law of correspondence of numbers a function, since for a function one value of the argument corresponds strictly one function value.

In order to introduce precisely the inverse function to squaring, the concept of arithmetic square root was proposed, which gives only non-negative values. Those. for a function, the inverse function is considered.

Similarly, there are functions inverse to trigonometric functions, they are called inverse trigonometric functions... Each of the functions we have considered has its own inverse, they are called: arcsine, arccosine, arctangent and arccotangent.

These functions solve the problem of calculating the angles from the known value of the trigonometric function. For example, using a table of values \u200b\u200bof basic trigonometric functions, you can calculate the sine of which angle is. We find this value in the line of sines and determine which angle it corresponds to. The first thing I want to answer is that this is an angle or, but if you have a table of values \u200b\u200bbefore, you will immediately notice another contender for an answer - this is an angle or. And if we remember the period of the sine, then we understand that the angles at which the sine is equal are infinite. And such a set of angle values \u200b\u200bcorresponding to a given value of the trigonometric function will be observed for cosines, tangents and cotangents, since they all have periodicity.

Those. we are facing the same problem we had for calculating the argument value from the function value for the square action. And in this case, for inverse trigonometric functions, a restriction on the range of values \u200b\u200bthat they give when calculating was introduced. This property of such inverse functions is called narrowing the range, and it is necessary for them to be called functions.

For each of the inverse trigonometric functions, the range of angles that it returns is different, and we will consider them separately. For example, arcsine returns angle values \u200b\u200bin the range from to.

The ability to work with inverse trigonometric functions will be useful to us when solving trigonometric equations.

We will now indicate the basic properties of each of the inverse trigonometric functions. If you want to learn more about them, refer to the chapter "Solving trigonometric equations" in the 10th grade program.

1. Inverse trigonometric functions

Let's start our discussion of this topic with the following example.

Example 1

Let's solve the equation:a) sin x \u003d 1/2; b) sin x \u003d a.

a) On the ordinate, we postpone the value 1/2 and plot the anglesx 1 and x2, for whichsin x \u003d 1/2. Moreover, x1 + x2 \u003d π, whence x2 \u003d π -x 1 ... According to the table of values \u200b\u200bof trigonometric functions, we find the value x1 \u003d π / 6, thenLet us take into account the periodicity of the sine function and write down the solutions of this equation:where k ∈ Z.

b) It is obvious that the algorithm for solving the equationsin x \u003d a is the same as in the previous paragraph. Of course, now the value a is plotted along the ordinate. It becomes necessary to somehow designate the angle x1. We agreed to denote such an angle by the symbolarcsin and. Then the solutions of this equation can be written in the formThese two formulas can be combined into one:wherein

The rest of the inverse trigonometric functions are introduced in a similar way.

It is very often necessary to determine the value of an angle from the known value of its trigonometric function. This problem is multivalued - there are countless angles, the trigonometric functions of which are equal to the same value. Therefore, proceeding from the monotonicity of trigonometric functions, the following inverse trigonometric functions are introduced to uniquely determine the angles.

Arcsine of number a (arcsin , whose sine is equal to a, i.e.

Arccosine numbera (arccos a) is such an angle a from an interval whose cosine is equal to a, i.e.

Arc tangent of a numbera (arctg a) - such an angle a from the intervalwhose tangent is equal to a, i.e.tg a \u003d a.

Arccotangent of numbera (arcctg a) is an angle a from the interval (0; π), the cotangent of which is equal to a, i.e.ctg a \u003d a.

Example 2

Let's find:

Taking into account the definitions of inverse trigonometric functions, we get:

It is seen that z ∈ (-∞; 1]. Considering that the argumentz the arc cotangent function varies within the indicated limits, from the data in the table we obtain thatSo the area of \u200b\u200bchange

Example 6

Let us prove that the function y \u003darctg x is odd. Let beThen tan a \u003d -x or x \u003d - tan a \u003d tan (- a), and Therefore, - a \u003d arctan x or a \u003d - arctan x. Thus, we see thatthat is, y (x) is an odd function.

Example 7

Similarly, therefore and

So,

Example 8

Let us plot the function y \u003dcos (arcsin x).

We denote a \u003d arcsin x, then We take into account that x \u003d sin a and y \u003d cos a, i.e. x 2 + y2 \u003d 1, and restrictions on x (x [-1; 1]) and y (y ≥ 0). Then the graph of the function y \u003dcos (arcsin x) is a semicircle.

Example 9

Let us plot the function y \u003darccos (cos x).

Since the function cos x changes on the segment [-1; 1], then the function y is defined on the entire numerical axis and changes on the segment. We will keep in mind that y \u003darccos (cos x) \u003d x on the segment; the function y is even and periodic with a period of 2π. Taking into account that these properties are possessed by the functioncos x, now it's easy to plot.
