It is a formula that is the reverse of another one.

I.e if you put x = 1 into a formula and get y = 5, with the inverse formula you would put x =5 and get y = 1.

To work out an inverse I will give an example:

Y = 2X + 7

there are 2 ways to do it, but my favourite is to replace ys with xs and vice versa so:

X = 2Y + 7

rearrange to get it as Y =...

2Y = X - 7

Y = (X-7)/2

Now put in a number like x = 5 into the top equation and you get y = 17 then putting x = 17 into the bottom equation you get 5, which means it is correct, the inverse.

Math question what is inverse operation?

Mathematical function that undoes the effect of another function. For example, the inverse function of the formula that converts Celsius temperature to Fahrenheit temperature is the formula that converts Fahrenheit to Celsius. Applying one formula and then the other yields the original temperature. Inverse procedures are essential to solving equations because they allow mathematical operations to be reversed (e.g. logarithms, the inverses of exponential functions, are used to solve exponential equations). Whenever a mathematical procedure is introduced, one of the most important questions is how to invert it. Thus, for example, the trigonometric functions gave rise to the inverse trigonometric functions.

What does formula of derivative of an inverse allows you to do?

The formula for the derivative of an inverse (finv)' = 1/(f' o (finv)) allows you get a formula for the derivative of the inverse of any function that you already know the derivative of. For example: What is the derivative of sqrt(x)? You could figure this out using the definition of the derivative, but it is complicated. You already know that the derivative of x2 is 2x. So let f = x2; finv = sqrt(x), f' = 2x. This gives: (sqrt(x))' = 1/(2 sqrt(x)). Now you have derived a "square root rule" with almost no work.
