    Inverse cosine (arccos) function

    AHL 3.9

    The inverse of cos is arccos, also written cos−1. Its domain is the range of cos: (−1,1), and its range is the domain of cosx, restricted so that the inverse function passes the vertical line test: (0,π).


    The graph of y=arccosx is the mirror image of cosx (restricted to 0<x<π) in the line y=x, giving a decreasing function:
