Just remember dy/dx = 1/(dx/dy)

(f-)'(y)=1/f'(x) The derivative of the inverse function at y is 1/derivative of the function at x. i.e dx/dy=1/(dy/dx) where f(x) must be evaluated at x and f-(y) must be evaluated at y. These follow from y=f(x) and x=f-(y). Confusion is removed if the domain and range are not confused by using the same variable symbol.

00:55 Just holding here for a moment to see if I understand. So, for example, arctan'x = 1/ sec^2 (arctan x), right?
