Question
Graph $y=\sin x$ for $x$ between $-\pi / 2$ and $\pi / 2,$ and then reflect the graph about the line $y=x$ to obtain the graph of $y=\sin ^{-1} x$ between $-\pi / 2$ and $\pi / 2$.
Step 1
The graph of $y=\sin x$ is a wave that oscillates between -1 and 1. In the interval $-\pi / 2$ to $\pi / 2$, the graph starts at 0, reaches 1 at $\pi / 2$, and is 0 at $-\pi / 2$. Show more…
