I think you mean the concept of inverse trig functions.
Let's just look at one, the inverse cosine function.
cos-1 (x) also called arccos(x) is the inverse of cos(x).
cos-1 (x) <=> x=cos (theta)
So to evaluate an inverse trig function we are ask what angle, theta, did we plug into the trig function (regular, not inverse function) to get x.
So here is one more example.
tan-1 (x) means x=cos (theta)

What is an secant in math?
Secant is a trignometric function. In a right triangle, the secant of an angle is the hypotenuse over the adjacent side. It is also the inverse of cosine. For example secant(x) = 1/cos(x)
How do you find x in a trignometric functions?
find x. given is 14 and a 90 degree angle
Definition of Inverse property of addition?
* *It is the reverse of the actionEx.Addition is the inverse of subtrationmultiplication is the inverse of division
What are the two sets of inverse operations?
Addition is the inverse operation of subtraction and multiplication is the inverse operation of division. The word inverse means "opposite".
What is the inverse for numbers under addition?
A number and its additive inverse add up to zero. If a number has no sign, add a "-" in front of it to get its additive inverse. The additive inverse of 5 is -5. The additive inverse of x is -x. If a number has a minus sign, take it away to get its additive inverse. The additive inverse of -10 is 10. The additive inverse of -y is y.

What are the two types of inverse functions?
These are the for inverse operations:Multiplications inverse is divisionDivisions inverse is multiplicationAdditions inverse is subtractionSubtractions inverse is addition
What is the opposite of one-half?
That depends what you mean with "opposite". Two important math concepts are:a) The additive inverse. That's the same number, with a minus in front of it (a number plus its additive inverse = 0).b) The multiplicative inverse, also called the reciprocal. One divide by the number. For a fraction, you can simply exchange numerator and denominator to get the reciprocal. (A number times its reciprocal = 1.)

Is the principal trignometric functions are injective?
Yes, that is why they are called "principal". The domains are restricted so that the functions become injective.
