The inverse of an exponential function is a logarithmic function. The inverse of a function is obtained by switching the x and y coordinates. This reflects the graph about the line y=x. As you can tell from the graph to the right, the logarithmic curve is a reflection of the exponential curve.
Read about how I teach my high school students about inverse functions. Start by inverting coordinates to teach inverse functions. Notice the geometric connection with the inverse as the reflection over the line y=x. Multiple representations are explored: tables, graphs and equations. Blog post by Mathberry Lane

This activity is perfect for a review of linear functions and their graph features. Students really make connections between linear equations and the graph. Includes slope, y-intercept, x-intercept, and slope-intercept form. Perfect for 8th grade math or Algebra 1.
Teach Inverse Functions with this easy hand-drawn algebra infographic! Students learn how an inverse function undoes the original function using y = f⁻¹(x), with key rules like f(f⁻¹(x)) = x and f⁻¹(f(x)) = x. Includes steps for finding an inverse, swapping x and y, solving for y, graph reflection over y = x, examples, and real-life uses. Perfect for high school algebra, homeschool lessons, classroom anchor charts, functions practice, and quick revision. Save this pin to help students understand inverse functions, input-output relationships, and graphing with confidence. #InverseFunction #Functions #AlgebraBasics #MathForKids #MathEducation #HighSchoolMath #TeachingMath #Homeschooling #MathAnchorChart #StudyTips
