ArcTan (x)
• Similar to the ArcSin (x)
• Domain of Tan Function:
• Range of Tan Function:
arcCos (0.28)
• Is the value 0.28 on either triangle or curve?
• Use your calculator:– (0.28)Cos-1

4.7 Inverse Trig Functions
So far we have:
1) Restricted the domain of trig functions to find their inverse
2) Evaluated inverse trig functions for exact values
3) Found missing coordinates on the graphs of inverses
4) Found the exact values of compositions
Composition of Functions
1) Evaluate innermost function first2) Substitute in that value3) Evaluate outermost function

Evaluate the innermost function first:arcCos ½ =
Substitute that value in original problem
