Answer:

Question:

If f and g are inverse functions, the domain of f is the same as the range of g.

Step-by-step explanation:

If f: A โ†’ B is a bijective function, then the inverse function of f, say g will be a function such that g: B โ†’ A whose domain is B (which is a range of A) and range is A (which is the domain of f).

For example The trigonometric sine function,


\sin \colon\mleft[-\pi/2,\pi/2\mright]\to\mleft[-1,1\mright]

is a bijective function with a domain


\mleft[-\pi/2,\pi/2\mright]

and range


\mleft[-1,1\mright].

Now the inverse sine function i.e.,


\sin ^(-1)\colon\mleft[-1,1\mright]\to\mleft[-\pi/2,\pi/2\mright]

has the domain


\mleft[-1,1\mright]

equal to the range of the sine function and the range of the function as


\mleft[-\pi/2,\pi/2\mright]

equal to the domain of the sine function.

Therefore,

Therefore, the statement if f and g are inverse functions, the domain of f is the same as the range of g isTRUE
