If arcsin X is a function, then the domain of Sin X could be? Explain pleasee!

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the arcsin function has a range of -pi/2 to pi/2 So it only gives you values if sin between -pi/2 and pi/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks but How do you know the range?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

its a part of trig class; and trig is alot of memorizing...

OpenStudy (amistre64):

basically, we take a section of the sin graph that we can use for an inverse function

OpenStudy (amistre64):

and by convention, that part is between -pi/2 and pi/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh Ok thanks once again :] one more question for the Sin graph of that like sideways S thing do you know the order at which the X axis is like the pi/2 and pi and stuff

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the order eh; let me draw a pic

OpenStudy (amistre64):

like this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes kinda i would like to know what goes inbetween the pi's/2 though but i only need positive or negative :]

OpenStudy (amistre64):

i got that a little backwards; the pi/2 stuff is the output and should be on the y's the x axis should normally be for -1 to 1

OpenStudy (amistre64):

OpenStudy (amistre64):

other than that, i dont really know what your asking :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Im quite confused i believe X is the pi and y is -1 to 1 .... for sin.. not arcsin i just need to know this
