Understanding Inverses and Functions

The video tutorial explains how to find the inverse of a relation, starting with ordered pairs. It defines an inverse as interchanging the X and Y values of ordered pairs. The video demonstrates graphing these pairs and checking if they form a function using the vertical line test. It then shows how to find the inverse by swapping X and Y, and explains the symmetry of inverse graphs about the line y=x. The tutorial concludes by confirming that the inverse also passes the vertical line test, making it a function.
