Matching pairs
  1. Left
    sin (sin⁻¹ x) = x
    Right
    holds for x in [−1, 1]
  2. Left
    sin⁻¹ (sin x) = x
    Right
    holds for x in [−π/2, π/2]
  3. Left
    y = sin⁻¹ x
    Right
    means x = sin y
  4. Left
    (sin x)⁻¹
    Right
    means 1/sin x, i.e. cosec x
Your syllabus states both identities together with the interval each one holds on quoting one without its condition is the usual slip. Source: syllabus Maths Part I, Ch 2 Inverse Trigonometric Functions.

Assertion and reason: identities

Read exercise and reference answers
Questions
  1. Reason
    It holds only where x lies in [−π/2, π/2], the principal branch.
    Verdict
    Both are true; the reason explains the assertion.
    Assertion
    sin⁻¹ (sin x) = x cannot be claimed for every real x.
  2. Reason
    [−1, 1] is exactly the domain of sin⁻¹.
    Verdict
    Both are true; the reason explains the assertion.
    Assertion
    sin (sin⁻¹ x) = x holds for every x in [−1, 1].
  3. Reason
    An inverse function swaps the roles of input and output.
    Verdict
    Both are true; the reason explains the assertion.
    Assertion
    If y = sin⁻¹ x then x = sin y.
Each pair turns on whether the stated interval is the right one. Source: syllabus Maths Part I, Ch 2 Inverse Trigonometric Functions.
