Solution:

Function Domain

sin−1(x) [−1,1] →→→→→Defined

cos−1(x) [−1,1] →→→→→Defined

tan−1(x) (−∞,∞) →→→→→Defined

cot−1(x) (−∞,∞) →→→→→Defined

sec−1(x) (−∞,−1]∪[1,∞) →→→→→ not Defined

cosec−1(x) (−∞,−1]∪[1,∞) →→→→→not Defined

As, you can see that, all inverse trigonometric functions are defined for,
x=(-1)/(2), except sec−1(x) and cosec−1(x)

, whose domain is not valid or do not exist when ,
x=(-1)/(2).
