Misuse of inverse function theorem

Let $U={binom{u}{v}in mathbb{R}^2|0<v<u}$. Let $f:Utomathbb{R}^2, f(u,v)=(u+v,uv)$. Show that $f$ has a global reverse function, find $g=f^{-1}$ and its domain.





Not a valid solution: For any $(u,v)inmathbb{R}^2$,
$$
\ Df(u,v)=begin{pmatrix}
1& 1\
v& u
end{pmatrix} ne0 Leftrightarrow une v
$$

then $Df(u,v)$ is reversable for any $(u,v)in U$. Thus, $forall (u,v)in U$,
$$
\ g(u,v)=frac{operatorname{adj}(Df(u,v))}{operatorname{det}(Df(u,v))}=frac{1}{u-v}cdot begin{pmatrix}
u & -1 \
-v & 1 end{pmatrix}
$$
I understand this is not the solution, but I don't understand where is the mistake.

          You've found the inverse of $Df$, not the inverse of $f$.
