The inverse trig derivatives are the derivatives of the inverse trigonometric functions arcsin (or sin-1), arccos (or cos-1), arctan (or tan-1), etc. We use implicit differentiation to find the derivatives of the inverse trig function which we we explore in detail in the upcoming section.
Several notations for the inverse trigonometric functions exist. The most common convention is to name inverse trigonometric functions using an arc- prefix: arcsin(x), arccos(x), arctan(x), etc. [1] (This convention is used throughout this article.)
The derivative of arccos x is the negative of the derivative of arcsin x. That will be true for the inverse of each pair of cofunctions. The derivative of arccot x will be the negative of the derivative of arctan x. The derivative of arccsc x will be the negative of the derivative of arcsec x. For, beginning with arccos x:
Review the derivatives of the inverse trigonometric functions: arcsin(x), arccos(x), and arctan(x).
It is better to use arcsin x because normally in mathematics, a number raised to the power \displaystyle- {1} −1 means the reciprocal. Example: \displaystyle {3}^ { - { {1}}}=\frac {1} { {3}} 3−1 = 31. Most calculators use the (confusing) notation: \displaystyle { {\sin}^ { - { {1}}} {x}} sin−1x.
How do you find the derivative of the function #f(x)=arcsin(4x)+arccos(4x)#? What is the derivative of #arctan(x - sqrt(1+x^2))#? How to find the derivative of #3arccos(x/2)#?
