Inverse Trigonometric Functions — Quiz

Question 10 • Precalculus

Which expression is undefined?

Answer
A
sine inverse of negative 2
B
cosine inverse of 0
C
cosine inverse of negative 1
D
sine inverse of 1

Explanation

The inverse sine function, sin⁻¹(x), is defined only for inputs from −1 to 1, inclusive. Since −2 is outside this range, sin⁻¹(−2) is undefined. The other inputs, −1, 0, and 1, are all within the domain of inverse sine or inverse cosine.
