1. The function \(y=\sin x\) is one-to-one on \(\left [ -\dfrac<\pi >,\dfrac<\pi > \right ]\) ; thus, this interval is the range of the inverse function of \(y=\sin x\), \(f(x)=\sin^x\) The function \(y=\cos x\) is one-to-one on \([0,\pi ]\) ; thus, this interval is the range of the inverse function of \(y=\cos x\), \(f(x)=\cos^x\)
3. \(\dfrac<\pi >\) is the radian measure of an angle between \(-\dfrac<\pi >\) and \(\dfrac<\pi >\) whose sine is \(0.5\).
5. In order for any function to have an inverse, the function must be one-to-one and must pass the horizontal line test. The regular sine function is not one-to-one unless its domain is restricted in some way. Mathematicians have agreed to restrict the sine function to the interval \(\left [ -\dfrac<\pi >,\dfrac<\pi > \right ]\) so that it is one-to-one and possesses an inverse.
7. True . The angle, \(\theta _1\) that equals \(\arccos(-x)\), \(x>0\), will be a second quadrant angle with reference angle, \(\theta _2\), where \(\theta _2\) equals \(\arccos x\), \(x>0\). Since \(\theta _2\) is the reference angle for \(\theta _1\), \(\theta _2=\pi - \theta _1\) and \(\arccos(-x)=\pi - \arccos x-\)add texts here. Do not delete this text first.
