In this lesson, we will learn how to use a graph to find the inverse of a function and will explore the symmetry between the graph of a function and that of its inverse.
Q1:
The following is the graph of π ( π₯ ) = 2 π₯ β 1 .
Which one is the graph of the inverse function π ( π₯ ) β 1 ?
Q2:
Amir is looking for an inverse to . He starts with the parabola . He then reflects this in the line to get the shown parabola .
Complete Amirβs work by determining the inverse whose graph is the given solid curve.
Q3:
The following graph is of the function π ( π₯ ) = 6 π₯ + 8 π₯ + 1 2 , with its maximum at οΌ 1 3 , 9 ο , minimum at ( β 3 , β 1 ) , and zero at β 4 3 marked.
Find an expression for the inverse function π β 1 when π is restricted to the interval π₯ β₯ 1 3 .

Q4:
Consider the two following figures.
The first figure shows the graph of π ( π₯ ) = π₯ ο© and a tangent to the graph with gradient 1. This tangent meets the graph at a point with π₯ -coordinate 1 β 3 .
The second figure shows the graphs of π ( π₯ ) = π₯ + π ο© and its inverse π ( π₯ ) = ( π₯ β π ) ο± ο§ ο ο’ . The graphs cross in the third quadrant and touch in the first quadrant.
