is a sin x graph reflected over the y=x line a function?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you know the inverse function of sin x?

OpenStudy (mathteacher1729):

The graph of y = sin(x) has many points where it equals zero. (0, pi, 2pi, 3 pi, etc...) Does this help? Also, graph y = sin(x) and flip it about the line y = x. Hopefully that should make it a bit clearer. :) Ask if the reflected graph passes the "vertical line" test.

ohhh. csc?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It will give you arc sin x which is definitely a function, see by yourself

OpenStudy (anonymous):

got it thanks!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

As long as you restrict the domain it is. But the entire graph y=sin(x) reflected IS NOT a fucntion.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

function**

perfect!
