Consider the function
.
The function
is not an one-to-one function because it does not passes the horizontal line test .
The domain of the function
is
.
Hence to find the inverse of such functions, restrict the domain of the function such that it passes horizontal line test.
\The function is an one-to-one function in the the domain
, therefore the inverse of the function does exist.
To find the inverse of the function ,consider
and solve
in terms of
.

.
Interchange
and
.

Replace 
.
The inverse of the function is
in the domain
.
The inverse of the function
is
in the domain
