Solution:

Option(A) is correct.
To Find: The range of \cos ^{-1} x
Here, the inverse function is given by \mathrm{y}=\mathrm{f}^{-1}(x)
The graph of the function y=\cos ^{-1}(x) can be obtained from the graph of
Y=\cos x by interchanging x and y axes.i.e, if (a, b) is a point on Y=\cos x then (b, a) is the point on the function y=\cos ^{-1}(x)
Below is the Graph of the range of \cos ^{-1}(x)


From the graph, it is clear that the range of \cos ^{-1}(x) is restricted to the interval
[0, \pi]
