Question

What's the difference between the two graphs? Medal for help!
(posting pic below)

Answer 1

The graphs are the same, unless you have an old-school type teacher.

y = Arcsin (x) (with an uppercase A) is sometimes used to represent the function with a restricted range. That is, y = Arcsin(x) is called "the principal arcsine of x" where x is in the interval [-π/2, π/2] and y must be in [-1, 1].

the other arcsine (with the lower case a) is the graph with no restrictions on the y value. It is not a function, but it is a relation.

so, if you have a really "old-school" teacher, then the difference is that one graph is one-to-one and the other is not.

Answer 2

I'm not sure I've learned about that yet, and if I have, I don't remember.
Is there another (simpler) way to tell the difference?

Answer 3

I dont think so, Im sorry :(

Answer 4

It's alright. If I post the question that the graphs belong to, do you think you could tell which is right?

Answer 6

Dunno! Lets try thought!

Answer 7

Can u try typing in that wording here... It doesn't show it for me. thx..

Answer 8

Graph Quadrilateral ABCD whose vertex matrix is shown below. Then graph the dilation of Quadrilateral ABCD with a scale factor of 3 on the same coordinate grid.
Quadrilateral ABCD with vertex matrix.
Anything else you can't see?
