Inverses and derivatives: add a necessary word for the hypotheses of the theorem to hold
Line 208:
This result follows from the [[chain rule]] (see the article on [[inverse functions and differentiation]]).
 
The inverse function theorem can be generalized to functions of several variables. Specifically, a continuously differentiable [[real multivariable function|multivariable function]] {{math| ''f '': '''R'''<sup>''n''</sup> → '''R'''<sup>''n''</sup>}} is invertible in a neighborhood of a point {{mvar|p}} as long as the [[Jacobian matrix and determinant|Jacobian matrix]] of {{mvar|f}} at {{mvar|p}} is [[invertible matrix|invertible]]. In this case, the Jacobian of {{math|''f''<sup> −1</sup>}} at {{math|''f''(''p'')}} is the [[matrix inverse]] of the Jacobian of {{mvar|f}} at {{mvar|p}}.
