How to determine One-to-one, Onto and Inverse Functions? Lets we begin In this section, Lets us look at 3 special classes of functions and see how their properties lead us to the theory of a function action. So far, we have the general notion of a function , but in terms of the comparative sizes of the three sets involved (X, Y and f ). | |, with using the modulus sign, we just set the limits of f to be So, all we can say is that | | only in a positive value! In this section, what we can do is doing a comparison | | with | |.

One-to-one Functions Definition: A function such that each in X is related to a different [X = Domain, Y = Codomain] Illustrative Examples: 1. The function below is a 1 to 1 FUCNTION: in Y.

2. The function below is NOT a 1 to 1 FUCNTION

Proving Functions: 1. If is given by ASSUME ), this shows that Now, ) means that So, Results . So, It is a one to one function!

, determine it whether it is a one-to-one function. .

2. If is given by , given determine it whether it is a one-to-one function. DOMAIN WILL BE ), this shows that Results . So, It is not a one to one function!

ONTO Functions Definition: A function . is said to be onto, if for every y in Y, there is an x in X such that

Explanation of Definition: A function is onto, when its images is equals to its range, Illustrative Examples: 1. The function below is a onto FUCNTION:

2. The function below is NOT a onto FUCNTION:

Proving Functions: 1. Show that LET So, Since,

, given by

determine it whether it is a onto function. , become the subject, and .

, then we gonna to make and are also

, real numbers.

hence, the its images of

, it is a onto function! [*REFER DEFINATIONS]

2. Show that LET So, Since,

, given by

determine it whether it is a onto function. , become the subject,

, then we gonna to make and are not equal.

and

Hence, the its images of

, it is a NOT onto function!

One-to-one Correspondences Functions [1 to 1 ONTO function] Proof or Check it via the BICOMBINATION of One to One and Onto Function CHECKER!

Proving Functions: 1. ,

.determine it whether it is a one-to-one onto function.

Check one to one fucntion: Assume, ) Now, Proved that So, It is a one to one function! Check onto function: Let Now,

Since So, It is a onto function! , is a ONE TO ONE ONTO function!
