Inverse cosine is an important inverse trigonometric function. Mathematically, it is written as cos-1(x) and is the inverse function of the trigonometric function cosine, cos(x). An important thing vĩ đại note is that inverse cosine is not the reciprocal of cos x. There are 6 inverse trigonometric functions as sin-1x, cos-1x, tan-1x, csc-1x, sec-1x, cot-1x.

What is Inverse Cosine?
Inverse cosine is the inverse function of the cosine function. It is one of the important inverse trigonometric functions. Cos inverse x can also be written as arccos x. If y = cos x ⇒ x = cos-1(y). Let us consider a few examples vĩ đại see how the inverse cosine function works.
- cos 0 = 1 ⇒ 0 = cos-1 (1)
- cos π/3 = một nửa ⇒ π/3 = cos-1 (1/2)
- cos π/2 = 0 ⇒ π/2 = cos-1 (0)
- cos π = -1 ⇒ π = cos-1 (-1)
In a right-angled triangle, the cosine of an angle (θ) is the ratio of its adjacent side vĩ đại the hypotenuse, that is, cos θ = (adjacent side) / (hypotenuse). Using the definition of inverse cosine, θ = cos-1[ (adjacent side) / (hypotenuse) ].
Thus, the inverse cosine is used vĩ đại find the unknown angles in a right-angled triangle.
Domain and Range of Inverse Cosine
We know that the tên miền of the cosine function is R, that is, all real numbers and its range is [-1, 1]. A function f(x) has an inverse if and only if it is bijective(one-one and onto). Since cos x is not a bijective function as it is not one-one, the inverse cosine cannot have R as its range. Hence, we need vĩ đại make the cosine function one-one by restricting its tên miền. The tên miền of the cosine function can be restricted vĩ đại [0, π], [π, 2π], [-π, 0], etc. and get a corresponding branch of inverse cosine.
The tên miền of cosine function is restricted vĩ đại [0, π] usually and its range remains as [-1, 1]. Hence, the branch of cos inverse x with the range [0, π] is called the principal branch. Since the tên miền and range of a function become the range and tên miền of its inverse function, respectively, the tên miền of the inverse cosine is [-1, 1] and its range is [0, π], that is, cos inverse x is a function from [-1, 1] → [0, π].
Graph of Inverse Cosine
Since the tên miền and range of the inverse cosine function are [-1, 1] and [0, π], respectively, we will plot the graph of cos inverse x within the principal branch. As we know the values of the cosine function for specific angles, we will use the same values vĩ đại plot the points and hence the graph of inverse cosine. For nó = cos-1x, we have:
- When x = 0, nó = π/2
- When x = một nửa, nó = π/3
- When x = 1, nó = 0
- When x = -1, nó = π
- When x = -1/2, nó = 2π/3
Cos Inverse x Derivative
Now, we will determine the derivative of inverse cosine function using some trigonometric formulas and identities. Assume nó = cos-1x ⇒ cos nó = x. Differentiate both sides of the equation cos nó = x with respect vĩ đại x using the chain rule.
cos nó = x
⇒ d(cos y)/dx = dx/dx
⇒ -sin nó dy/dx = 1
⇒ dy/dx = -1/sin nó ---- (1)
Since cos2y + sin2y = 1, we have sin nó = √(1 - cos2y) = √(1 - x2) [Because cos nó = x]
Substituting sin nó = √(1 - x2) in (1), we have
dy/dx = -1/√(1 - x2)
Since x = -1, 1 makes the denominator √(1 - x2) equal vĩ đại 0, and hence the derivative is not defined, therefore x cannot be -1 and 1.
Hence the derivative of cos inverse x is -1/√(1 - x2), where -1 < x < 1
Inverse Cosine Integration
We will find the integral of inverse cosine, that is, ∫cos-1x dx using the integration by parts (ILATE).

∫cos-1x = ∫cos-1x · 1 dx
Using integration by parts,
∫f(x) . g(x) dx = f(x) ∫g(x) dx − ∫(f′(x) ∫g(x) dx) dx + C
Here f(x) = cos-1x and g(x) = 1.
∫cos-1x · 1 dx = cos-1x ∫1 dx - ∫ [d(cos-1x)/dx ∫1 dx]dx + C
∫cos-1x dx = cos-1x . (x) - ∫ [-1/√(1 - x²)] x dx + C
We will evaluate this integral ∫ [-1/√(1 - x²)] x dx using substitution method. Assume 1-x2 = u. Then -2x dx = du (or) x dx = -1/2 du.
∫cos-1x dx = x cos-1x - ∫(-1/√u) (-1/2) du + C
= x cos-1x - một nửa ∫u-1/2 du + C
= x cos-1x - (1/2) (u1/2/(1/2)) + C
= x cos-1x - √u + C
= x cos-1x - √(1 - x²) + C
Therefore, ∫cos-1x dx = x cos-1x - √(1 - x²) + C

- d(cos-1x)/dx = -1/√(1 - x2), -1 < x < 1
- ∫cos-1x dx = x cos-1x - √(1 - x²) + C
Important Notes on Cos Inverse x

- θ = cos-1[ (adjacent side) / (hypotenuse) ], θ ∈ [0, π]
- d(cos-1x)/dx = -1/√(1 - x2), -1 < x < 1
- ∫cos-1x dx = x cos-1x - √(1 - x²) + C
- cos-1(-x) = π - cos-1x
