Functions (XII)
Question

If the following functions are defined from [-1, 1] to [-1, 1], select those which are not bijective.

Moderate
Solution

fx=sinsin-1x=xx-1,1, which is one-one and onto.

fx=2πsin-1sinx=2πx

The range of the function for 

x1-,1is-2π,2π,

which is a subset of [-1, 1].
Hence, the function is one-one but not onto and, hence, is not bijective.

fx=sgnxlnex=sinxx=x,x>0-x,x<00,x=0

This function has range [0, 1] which is a subset of [-1, l].

Hence, the function is into. Also, the function is many-one.

fx=x3sgnx=x,x>0-x3,x<00,x=0

which is many-one and into.
