Exploring Inverse Functions Graphically and Conceptually

What is the primary focus when discussing inverse functions in mathematics?

• Determining the reverse or opposite operation of a function

• Finding the highest value of a function

• Calculating the derivative of a function

• Establishing the limit of a function as it approaches infinity

What visual effect does graphing the inverse of a function have?

• The graph rotates around the origin

• The graph seems to be folded over the line y=x

• It looks like the graph is compressed vertically

• It appears as if the graph is stretched horizontally
