HELP! how do you prove sin^-1 = cscx ?

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
\[\sin ^{-1} x \ne \csc x\]
however if you meant \[(\sin x)^{-1} = \csc x\]
then that's right
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
\[(\sin x)^{-1} \implies \frac{1}{\sin x} \implies \csc x\]
does that help?
OpenStudy (jiteshmeghwal9):
\[\frac{1}{\sin}=cscx\]
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
@best.shakir what just happened? where did 1-cos x come from?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
WAIT if csc^-1 = sin^-1 (1/x) AM i correct?

sorry
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
...that doesnt sound right
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
@lsugano
OpenStudy (jiteshmeghwal9):
having the power of -1 the number will come as reciprocal &reminding the property that \[1/\sin=\csc\]
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
\[(\csc x)^{-1} \implies \sin x \ne \sin (\frac 1x)\]

@lgbasallote
are they equal:
\[\large \sin^2(x) = (\sin(x))^2\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no im talking about identities for the inverse functions! so its not an exponent!
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
@waterineyes yes
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
i know @lsugano
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
do you mean arc cosecant?

Are they equal ??
\[\large \sin^{-1}x = (\sin(x))^{-1}\]
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
no
OpenStudy (anonymous):
How ??
OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):
\[\sin(x)=\frac{
\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}}\]
\[\csc(x)=\frac{\text{hypotenuse}}{
\text{opposite}}\]
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
\[\sin^{-1} x\] that is arcsin
\[(\sin x)^{-1} \implies \frac{1}{\sin x} \implies \csc x\]

u can prove it as since sinx=p/h\[\color{red}{{1\over \frac{p}{h}}={h \over p}}\]
OpenStudy (jiteshmeghwal9):
h/p=csc
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
anyway..i have to go now...good luck on all of you because you'll need it considering how vague the question is ;)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You have just replaced 2 by -1 and you are saying no ??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
nonono i havent reached arc cosecant yet. the book said that if x≤-1 or x≥1 then csc^-1x= sin^-1 (1/x) i want to know the opposte!!

im so lost....
OpenStudy (jiteshmeghwal9):
first of all u have to know that sin=p/h
OpenStudy (jiteshmeghwal9):
sin^-1=1/sin
OpenStudy (jiteshmeghwal9):
is it clear to u @Isugano ??????????/
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes okay
