If a function f: A→B defined as f(x)=y is one-one and onto then we can define a unique function g: B→A such that g(y)=x, where x∈A and y∈B. Function g is called the inverse of function f. The domain of sine function is R and function sin: R→[−1, 1] is neither one-one nor onto. The following graph shows the sine function. Let sine function be defined from the set A to [-1, 1] such that inverse of sine function exists, i.e, sin^{-1}(x) is defined from [-1, 1] to A. On the above information, answer for the following questions: (i) If A is the interval other than principal value branch, give an example of one such interval. (ii) If sin^{-1}(x) is defined from [-1,1] to its principal value branch, find the value of sin^{-1}(−1/2)−sin^{-1}(1). (iii) (a) Draw the graph of sin^{-1}(x) from [-1, 1] to its principal value branch. (OR) (b) Find the domain and range of 2sin^{-1}(1−x).
