Two functions are the inverse of one another if, for any value "x" (within the relevant range of numbers), if you apply the first function, and then you apply the other function to the result, you get the original value ("x") back. For example, starting with 3, if you square it you get 9; if you take the square root of 9, you get 3. The same happens for any non-negative number; thus, squaring and taking the square root are inverses of one another.
