This lesson plan teaches students about inverse functions. It begins with objectives, materials, and a teaching strategy of lecture. Examples are provided to show how to find the inverse of one-to-one functions by interchanging x and y and solving for the new y. Properties are discussed, such as the inverse of an inverse is the original function. Students are asked to find inverses and solve word problems. The lesson concludes by having students generalize their understanding and complete an evaluation with additional inverse problems.

1. SEMI-DETAILED LESSON PLAN IN GENERAL MATHEMATICS
I. Objectives: At the end of the lesson, the students are expected to:

c. Teaching strategy: lecture method
III. Procedure
A. Preparatory Activities
1) Prayer
2) Drill
 The teacher will have a game about guessing the rule given the constructed
table of values.
3) Review
 The teacher asks the following questions to the students:
Last meeting you discussed about one-to-one function, and based on our
activity :
Between the two given functions, which function represents one-to-one
function ? What is one-to-one function then?
 To determine if the students understood the previous lesson, the teacher will
show flash cards to be answered by them.
x -2 -1 0 1 2
y -6 -5 -4 -3 -2
x -2 -1 0 1 2
y 2 -4 -6 -4 2

2. B. Developmental activities
1) Motivation
 The teacher will present unarranged phrase to be arranged by the
students.
2) Presentation
 The teacher restate the lesson and the lesson objectives.
Our topic for today is to determine the inverse of a one-to-one function. And
at the end of the discussion, you, students are expected to define what is
inverse function; find the inverse of a function; and solve problems involving
inverse of one-to-one function.
3) Discussion
 The teacher will ask the students how they define the word “INVERSE” and
relate it in function.
Original function: inverse function:
 Based on the illustration what do you mean by inverse?
 Why is it that it states one-to-one function? Why not all function?
One-to-one function: function but not one-to-one :
x -2 -1 0 1 2
y -6 -5 -4 -3 -2
x -2 -1 0 1 2
y -6 -5 -4 -3 -2
x -2 -1 0 1 2
y -6 -5 -4 -3 -2
x -2 -1 0 1 2
y 4 1 0 1 4
x -6 -5 -4 -3 -2
y -2 -1 0 1 2
x 4 1 0 1 4
y -2 -1 0 1 2

A relation reversing the process performed by any function f(x) is called inverse of f(x).
This means that the every element of the range corresponds to exactly one element of
the domain.
A function has an inverse if and only if it is one-to-one.
Not a valid
function

3. EXAMPLES:
1. Find the inverse of a function described by the set of ordered pairs
{(0, −2),(1,0),(2,2), (3,4)}.
Answer: {(−2,0), (0,1),(2,2),(4,3)}
2. Find the inverse of a function 𝑓( 𝑥) = 3𝑥 + 1
Sol.
𝑓( 𝑥) = 3𝑥 + 1
𝑦 = 3𝑥 + 1
𝑥 = 3𝑦 + 1
𝑦 =

3. Find the inverse of 𝑓( 𝑥) = 5𝑥 + 6
Sol.
𝑓( 𝑥) = 5𝑥 + 6
𝑦 = 5𝑥 + 6
𝑥 = 5𝑦 + 6
𝑦 =
𝑥 − 6

 Based on the given examples how do we find the inverse of one-to-one
function?
4. Find the inverse of 𝑓( 𝑥) = 3𝑥2
− 2 if it exists.
5. Find the inverse of 𝑓( 𝑥) =
1
3
𝑥 − 2 and 𝑔( 𝑥) = 3𝑥 + 6
Properties of inverse of a one-to-one function
To find the 𝑓−1( 𝑥)
1. Replace 𝑓( 𝑥)with 𝑦
2. Interchange 𝑥 and 𝑦
3. Solve for the new 𝑦 in the equation
4. Replace the new 𝑦 with 𝑓−1( 𝑥)
The inverse of 𝑓( 𝑥) is 𝑔(𝑥) and the inverse of 𝑔(𝑥) is ( 𝑥) . Therefore,the inverse of 𝑓( 𝑥) is
𝑓−1(𝑥) and the inverse of 𝑓−1(𝑥) is 𝑓( 𝑥).
It does not have an inverse since it is not one-to-one function.
Given a one-to-one function 𝑓( 𝑥) and its inverse 𝑓−1(𝑥), then the following are true:
1. The inverse of 𝑓−1(𝑥) is 𝑓( 𝑥)
2. 𝑓( 𝑓−1( 𝑥)) = 𝑥 for all 𝑥 in the domain of 𝑓−1(𝑥).
3. 𝑓−1(𝑓( 𝑥)) = 𝑥 for all 𝑥 in the domain of 𝑓(𝑥).
