Hi Regina
It has been decades since I handled groups, rings, fields, and functions
in my french lycée. Now I am confused because it looks like the two
terms are swapped between french and english...
Regards
Olivier
In french:
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cos%C3%A9cante#Fonctions_r.C3.A9ciproques
in English
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_%28mathematics%29
A better reference for Engish is
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sine#Reciprocal
The topic here are functions, not numbers.
For numbers you have the term "additive inverse of x is -x" or
"multiplicative inverse of x is 1/x". But in context of functions
"inverse" always means the inverse in respect to composition.
I don't know French. Astonishing, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sine has
no direct translation to French.
Kind regards
Regina
