5 -7 Radical Functions Recall that exponential and logarithmic functions are inverse functions. Quadratic and cubic functions have inverses as well. The graphs below show the inverses of the quadratic parent function and cubic parent function. Holt Mc. Dougal Algebra 2

5 -7 Radical Functions Notice that the inverses of f(x) = x 2 is not a function because it fails the vertical line test. However, if we limit the domain of f(x) = x 2 to x ≥ 0, its inverse is the function. A radical function is a function whose rule is a radical expression.
