Sketching the function y=\cos^{-1}\cos(x) for x\in\mathbb{R}

Question: Sketch y=\cos^{-1}\cos x for x\in\mathbb{R}.

Basically you work it out for 0 \le x \le \pi first, which is fairly easy just using the definition of the inverse cosine function. Then you can use symmetry to guess the rest. 

Below we did work out the details for  \pi \le x \le 2\pi and since the function has period 2\pi we know the rest of the graph.

The YouTube video talks through the basic step.

Below is a screen shot from the YouTube video for this problem.
