The one-one function \(f\) is defined by \(f(x) = (x-2)^2 + 2\) for \(x \geq c\), where \(c\) is a constant.
- State the smallest possible value of \(c\).
- In parts (ii) and (iii) the value of \(c\) is 4.
- Find an expression for \(f^{-1}(x)\) and state the domain of \(f^{-1}\).
- Solve the equation \(ff(x) = 51\), giving your answer in the form \(a + \sqrt{b}\).
