Composition sin(arcsin x) = x, cos(arccos x) = x, tan(arctan x) = x, for all x [1, 1] for all x [1, 1] for all x (, ) arcsin(sin x) = x, arccos(cos x) = x, arctan(tan x) = x,

for all x 2, 2

Derivative d 1 arcsin x = dx 1 x2 Notation arcsin x = sin1 x

d 1 arccos x = dx 1 x2

d 1 arctan x = dx 1 + x2

arccos x = cos1 x

arctan x = tan1 x

Note that the 1 in these notations is not an exponent, e.g., sin1 x =
