This free inverse trig derivatives worksheet helps AP Calculus AB students derive and apply the derivatives of sin⁻¹x, cos⁻¹x, tan⁻¹x and the other inverse trig functions. The 15-page printable PDF covers inverse trig review, reading slopes from graphs, and deriving the formulas using implicit differentiation.
Students also combine the formulas with the product, quotient and chain rules, evaluate derivatives at a point, write tangent lines, find derivatives of inverse functions from formulas and tables, and prove identities. A rocket problem, mixed review, a challenge problem and a graphing challenge make it ideal for Unit 3 classwork, homework or AP exam review.
