(a)
To give:An example of function that is its own inverse.
(a)
Answer to Problem 43E
An example of function that is its own inverse is
Explanation of Solution
Consider the function.
Its inverse is,
Therefore, an example of function that is its own inverse is
(b)
The symmetry that both the graph should exihibit.
(b)
Answer to Problem 43E
The graph of both the function should be symmetric about the origin.
Explanation of Solution
Consider the function.
Its inverse is,
The graph of both the function should be symmetric about the origin.
(c)
To find: Whether all the function with such type of symmetry be their own inverse.
(c)
Answer to Problem 43E
No, all the function with such type of symmetry are not their own inverse always.
Explanation of Solution
Consider the function.
Its inverse is,
So, the function and inverse are not same.
