Graph the entire inverse relation.  Put a vertical line through any part of the curve other than the vertex.  You see two intersection points.  One x coordinate and two y coordinates.  Now for inverse FUNCTION, you need to specify which part; the part above the symmetry axis,  or the part below the symmetry axis. </SPAN>\n" );
