At which points on the graph of inverse of [math]f(x)= \frac 1 {x^2+1} +\sqrt[3]{1-2x}[/math] [math]x \ge 0[/math] the tangents of f(x) and its inverse are perpendicular?
Finding an explicit expression for [imath]f^{-1}(x)[/imath] algebraically is going to be quite difficult. The best that I could do to find a perpendicular pair of tangent lines was to look at the graphs of the function and its inverse. Given the restriction that [imath]x \ge 0[/imath], I can see one possible pair.
