Let's graph the inverse functions
we had in the last lesson on the same graph and see what happens:
 |
and |
 |

There are two big things I want
you to notice:
 |
|
They are mirror images over
the line
y = x.
(In other words, they are
symmetric
with respect to the line
y =
x.) |
|
 |
Notice that every point on
f(x)
has a reversed partner on
g(x).
(0,
3)
has (3,
0)
as a partner and so on. |
So, just remember this:
| Every
(x,
y)
has a (y,
x)
partner. |
