What is inverse tangent?

It is a function which maps the tangent ratio - any real value - to an angle in the range (-pi/2, pi/2) radians. Or (-90, 90) degrees.If tan(x) = y then x is the inverse tangent of y.It is also known as "arc tangent", and spreadsheets, such as Excel, use "atan" for this function.Warning:1/tangent = cotangent is the reciprocal, NOT the inverse.

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.


What is the derivative of tangent?

the derivative of tangent dy/dx [ tan(u) ]= [sec^(2)u]u' this means that the derivative of tangent of u is secant squared u times the derivative of u.


What is the derivative of tan x0 its x to the power 0?

Regardless of what 'x' is, (x)0 = 1 . tan(1 radian) = 1.55741 (rounded) tan(1 degree) = 0.01745 (rounded) We can't remember the derivative of the tangent right now, but it doesn't matter. This particular tangent is a constant, so its derivative is zero.


What is a derivative in calculus?

When you take the derivative of a function, you are seeking a variation of that function that provides you with the slope of the tangent (instantaneous slope) at any value of (x). For example, the derivative of the function f(x)=x^2 is f'(x)=2x. Notice that the derivative is denoted by the apostrophe inside the f and (x). Also note that at x=0, f'(x)=0, which means that at x=0 the slope of the tangent is zero, which is correct for the function y=x^2.
