The Inverse Function

The graph of the inverse

The graph of the inverse

  • The graph of the inverse function is the reflection of the graph of the original function in the line y = x.
  • If the point (a, b) lies on the graph of f, then the point (b, a) lies on the graph of f−1.
  • This is why the two graphs are symmetric about the line y = x.
