\[f^{- 1} \left( x \right)\] is

\[\text{Let y be the element in the codomain R such that}\]
\[ f^{- 1} \left( x \right) = y . . . \left( 1 \right)\]
\[ \Rightarrow f\left( y \right) = x and y \leq1 \]
\[ \Rightarrow y\left( 2 - y \right) = x\]
\[ \Rightarrow 2y - y^2 = x\]
\[ \Rightarrow y^2 - 2y + x = 0\]
\[ \Rightarrow y^2 - 2y = - x\]
\[ \Rightarrow y^2 - 2y + 1 = 1 - x\]
\[ \Rightarrow \left( y - 1 \right)^2 = 1 - x\]
\[ \Rightarrow y - 1 = \pm \sqrt{1 - x}\]
\[ \Rightarrow y = 1 \pm \sqrt{1 - x}\]
\[ \Rightarrow y = 1 - \sqrt{1 - x} \left ( \because y \leq1 \right)\]
The correct answer is (b).
