Question 3 • Precalculus
The inverse secant function is defined by taking the inverse cosine of the reciprocal: sec⁻¹(x) = cos⁻¹(1/x). So to graph y = sec⁻¹(x) on a calculator, enter y = cos⁻¹(1/x), which is choice C. Choice A instead takes the reciprocal of cos⁻¹(x), which is a different function.
