Inverse Trigonometric Functions – cosec⁻¹(cosecx)

Inverse Trigonometric Functions – cosec⁻¹(cosecx)

Graph y = cosec⁻¹(cosecx):

y = cosec⁻¹(cosecx)

cosecy = cosecx

The general solution of cosecx = cosecα is nπ + α, n ϵ z

Now general solution of cosecy = cosecx is y = nπ + x, n ϵ z

y = nπ + x ….(1)

Equation (1) Put n = 0

y = (0)π + x

y = x

Draw the graph y = cosec⁻¹(cosecx)

Example: Evaluate the cosec⁻¹(cosec2π/3)

Solution:

cosec⁻¹(cosec2π/3)

cosec⁻¹(cosec(π -π/3))

cosec⁻¹(cosec(π/3)) = π/3
