T Misconceptions Inverse of Functions

The video addresses common misconceptions about function inverses, including the belief that all functions have inverses, domain restrictions only apply to quadratics, and the composition of a function and its inverse always results in one. It also clarifies that vertical shifts in functions do not simply reverse in their inverses. The instructor uses examples like quadratic and trigonometric functions to illustrate these points.
