What is the definition of sin^-1(x)?

y = sin^-1(x) finds angle when sine is x.

What is the range of the inverse sine function?

Range is [-π/2, π/2].

What is the derivative of cos^-1(x)?

d/dx[cos^-1(x)] = -1/√(1-x²).

What is the domain of tan^-1(x)?

Domain is all real x.

What is the integral of 1/√(a²-x²)?

∫1/√(a²-x²) dx = sin^-1(x/a) + C.

What is the derivative of sin^-1(x)?

d/dx[sin^-1(x)] = 1/√(1-x²).

What is the integral of 1/(a²+x²)?

∫1/(a²+x²) dx = (1/a)tan^-1(x/a) + C.

What is the range of cos^-1(x)?

Range is [0, π].

How do you calculate the angle of elevation?

Use tan^-1(opposite/adjacent) for elevation.

What is the integral of 1/(x²-a²) dx?

∫1/(x²-a²) dx = (1/2a)ln| (x-a)/(x+a) | + C.
