① This example demonstrates how to find the inverse of given functions algebraically and dynamically displays the relationship between the original function and its inverse in GeoGebra. ② Core mathematical concepts include the definition of inverse functions, swapping domain and range, the identity property f(f⁻¹(x))=x, and simplification of rational functions. ③ Construction highlights: using GeoGebra commands such as GCD, Simplify, Shuffle, If, Invert, FractionText, Point, and Corner, the applet builds multiple function objects (f1, f2, f4, f5) and their inverses (f1inv, f4inv, f5inv), with buttons (button1, button2) to generate random questions and check answers, and lists (alist, blist, qlist) to manage answer choices. ④ Suitable for high school or pre-university students learning functions and inverse functions, this interactive tool supports classroom practice or self-study, reinforcing algebraic inversion techniques and the symmetry of graphs.
