\[\mathrm{f} : x \mapsto \frac{\sqrt{2}(x-2)}{x^2+x-2}, \quad x \in \mathbb{R}, x > 1,\]
\[\mathrm{g} : x \mapsto \mathrm{e}^{-x}-1, \quad x \in \mathbb{R}.\]
Determine if the composite function \(\mathrm{fg}\) exists.[2]
Find the exact range of \(\mathrm{gf}\).[3]
The domain of \(\mathrm{f}\) is now restricted to \(0 < x < 1\). Find the value of \(\mathrm{g}^{-1}\mathrm{f}^{-1}(2)\).[3]
\[\mathrm{h} : x \mapsto \sqrt{3}(\sin x + \cos x), \quad x \in \mathbb{R}, -\frac{5}{2} \le x \le p,\]
where \(p\) is a real constant.
Find the largest exact value of \(p\) such that \(\mathrm{h}^{-1}\) exists.[3]
With the value of \(p\) obtained in part (b)(i), find the solution of \(\mathrm{h}\mathrm{h}^{-1}(x) = \mathrm{h}^{-1}\mathrm{h}(x)\), leaving your answer to 3 decimal places.[2]
