use f(f inv(x))=x
& differentiate & try to get ans
will post soln if req tmorw

bt i cant get a better method
& i m sure it cant be found using graph:(

Yup thats what i wrote but it doesn't defines f-1(x) in terms of x.. but is only a equation which f-1(x) will satisfy

:)

yup dat is correct i too am not able solve it beyond dat

1
abhijeetkumar kumar ·

is f-1(x)+sin(f-1(x))=x+C is correct??

1
abhijeetkumar kumar ·

but here also the answer is not clear!!

abhijeetkumar kumar ·

oh i am sorry!

i misunderstood f(inv (x)) as f'(x)

Abhishek Priyam ·

When u integrated it how u got that..

f-1(x)+sin(f-1(x))=x+C

:)

Abhishek Priyam ·

No the answer is not right :P

See the range of your function and it should have been R for to be inverse of x+sinx

oh i am sorry

f(inv (x)+sin(f(inv (x)=x+c.

greatvishal swami ·

f(f inv(x))=x
d(f(f inv(x))/dx=1
so d(f inv(x))/dx=1/f'(f inv(x))
f'x=1+cosx
so f'(f inv(x))=1+cos(f inv(x))
d(f inv(x))/dx=1/1+cos(f inv(x))
(1+cos(f inv(x))d(f inv(x))=dx

integrate it

I WILL CUM TOMMOROW

Lokesh Verma ·

no it is not!

well u cannot find it in closed form!

1
abhijeetkumar kumar ·

NOW WHAT IS THE EQ OF THAT CURVE??

BY PRACTICALLY IT IS X-SINX.

62
Lokesh Verma ·

yes abhijeet.. good wrok :)

1
abhijeetkumar kumar ·


NOW WHAT IS THE EQUATION??!!!

62
Lokesh Verma ·

It is drawn by taking the mirror image on x=y!

62
Lokesh Verma ·

draw x+sin x

and then take the mirror image along x=y!

1
abhijeetkumar kumar ·

thats what i am also suggesting but how to proceed now??

1
greatvishal swami ·

x-sinx is wrng
chk using f(f inv(x))=x

it jst resembles x-sinx acc to graph

1
abhijeetkumar kumar ·

so how to do!
this question came in the test of BT papers!
and the answer given was x-sinx!

62
Lokesh Verma ·

abhijeet u r right.. i corrected the above post :(

1
greatvishal swami ·

sry bro i copied that frm abhi's post without thinking
also i hav tried the Q in our classroom conclusion was dat we cant solve it using graph
so plzz u better giv the s

1
abhijeetkumar kumar ·

ya u could post the solution!

now i am in confusion f(f inv(x))=x or=1 or=0!!!!!!!

62
Lokesh Verma ·

and greatvishal

**edited**
f(f-1x) = x (not 1 not 0!!)

62
Lokesh Verma ·

well no paul and abhijeet and vishal.

The answer is not possible in closed form..

I think u can only do this one graphically :)

I will post the solution if u want!

But i want to see if..

if u see inverse function as (x-sinx)

then f(f-1(x)) = (x-sinx + sin(x-sinx)) which i dont see as 1 :)

1
greatvishal swami ·

@abhi
dude cheak ma 1st post u cant find inv of x+sinx graphically
use f(f inv(x))=0

1
abhijeetkumar kumar ·

by interchanging x & y!

the most probable answer is x-sinx!
but the problem is that f(f inverse(x))=0. iam not getting!
doen't it have to something with the symettry!
as it is symeetric about y=x so its inverse is same x+sinx!!!!!

1
Parul Kohli ·

its not by taking x=y.
But by interchanging x & y axis graph of inverse is obtained.

1
Indraneel Chatterjee ·

draw x+sinx graph then draw y=x graph then draw the image of x+sinx with respect to y=x and you will get it
