Teacher’s activity Student’s activity
Before we begin to our lesson, let us have a
recall on a function that Ma’am Paunil
discussed. So who can still recall the topic
about function?
Function is a relation such that no two
Let’s hear student A ordered pairs have the same first domain.
Very good!
So last time you’ve studied about a function.
If there are no two ordered pair have the same
first domain, it is a function.
a. 1 2 3
2 4 8
Is this a function or not? And explain why? Students will raise their hands
Each value match with only one value so that
Yes, student B
this is a function.
Very good!
A. Activity
Okay class, before we start our lesson I have
here a different picture now look at the
picture and analyze what does the picture
shows.
*the pictures shown
Now, class based on the pictures that you’ve The students will raise their hands.
seen what will you notice?
So let’s hear students C. All the picture are Inverse to each other.
Okay that’s correct! All
B. Analysis
Okay class, Todays lesson we are deals with
the inverse of a function.
For example, find the inverse of the function
f = {(2,4) (4,8) (-2,1)}
You can find the inverse by switching the
coordinates of an ordered pairs to obtain f −1.
−1
f = {(4,2) (8,4) (1, -2)}
Class, you can use f −1 to denote inverse
function of the function f.
Okay, another example
f = {(0,2) (-2,8) (3, -5)}
who wants to try to answer? The students raise their hands.
−1
Okay student D write the answer on the f = {(2,0) (8, -2) (-5, 3)}
board.
Very good!
There are also a steps in finding the inverse of
a given function.
For example, the given is f(x) = 3x+4
Step 1. Replace f(x) with y.
f(x) = 3x+4 y= 3x+4
Step 2. Interchange the position of x and y
variables.
The students raise their hands.
Who wants to write on the board the step 2?
x= 3y+4
Ok, student E write the answer
Very good
Step 3. Solve the equation in terms of y.
x- 4 =3y
x−4
=y

x−4
y=

Step 4. Replace y with y−1 of f −1(x).
x−4
y−1=¿ the inverse of f(x) = 3x+4
3
Yes, ma’am
−1 x−4
or f (x)=¿ .

Class do you understand how to find inverse The students raise their hands.
function?
−1 x−7
Okay, another example f(x)= 5x+7 f =
5
Who wants to try to answer on the board?
The students raise their hands.
Yes, student F
If there are two value of y it is not function
Okay that’s correct! and if there are one value of y that is a
function.
Now class how can we determine if the last
equation shows are function or not function?
Let’s hear students G
The students raise their hands.
What if the function is in the form of graph?
How can we determine if it has an inverse If there is no horizontal line that intersects the
function or No inverse function? graphs
Anyone who have an idea?
Lest hear your answer students F
Very Good!
Function f has an inverse that is a function,
−1
f , if there is no horizontal line that
intersects the graph of the function f at more
than one point.
For example Has an inverse function
a.
it graphs a represent function that have
inverse function or not?
Very good! because there is no horizontal line
that intersects the graphs.
b. No inverse function.
Because a horizontal line intersects the
graphs at two points.
how about graph b?
why it is no inverse function?
Very good!
Has an inverse function
c.
how about graph c?
that’s correct !
C. Abstraction
Now class do you understand how to find the Yes, Ma’am
inverse function?
How many steps we use in finding the inverse 4 steps

It is an function if there is one value for y.
How can we determine if the given inverse And it is not function if there are two value
function is a function or not? for y.
How can we determine if the given graph The function has inverse function if there is
function has an inverse function or no inverse no horizontal line that intersects the graph.
function? And the function has no inverse function if a
horizontal line intersect more than one point.
D. Application
Now that your already understand the lesson,
you’re going to answer this one whole sheet
of paper. Find the inverse of each function. Yes, ma’am
State whether f −1 is a function or not. Am I
understood class?
