random question - how do you type in maths notation? Is there a website or software to switch from maths and natural input?
It's Latex. Personally I don't know how to use it yet but there is an option on the toolbar in the text box, denoted by "f(x)".

How would I find the domain for this?
Recall that the domain of arctan x is all real x. However, for this question you have a restriction, that is the domain of sqrt(x^2 - 1).

For the function y = sqrt(x^2 - 1), the domain is that x >= 1, or x <= -1. Since the domain of arctan x is all real x, the domain of sqrt(x^2 - 1) is the domain of arctan(sqrt(x^2 - 1)), that is x >= 1, or x <= -1.

Actually that guide is a bit outdated.
I'm currently learning how to do LaTeX, so I'd recommend their website:

So essentially is the domain of the composite function inside brackets transferred into the whole function?

Yeah, but that’s only because the parent function (arctan x) has a domain of all real x. If it was a function like arccos x with a domain between -1 and 1 inclusive, I think there would be those restrictions which you’d have to consider.

really got the du qns - does the homework hinting stuff or whatever suck that much

If I'm being honest, no one really uses it and the homework help zooms are packed every day with at least 6 qns each from each student which correlates to hours upon hours of wait times. So usually what happens is I resort to BOS
