02 Symmetry Practice

This document discusses even and odd symmetry in functions. An even function has opposite x-values that result in the same y-values, while an odd function has opposite x-values that result in opposite y-values. Students are asked to identify whether graphs represent even, odd, or neither symmetry, complete tables representing the three types of symmetry, and draw the other half of partial graphs to display even or odd symmetry.

PRECALCULUS NAME: _____________________________________

FUNCTION SYMMETRY
PERIOD: _________

EVEN functions: Opposite 𝑥-values have _________________ 𝑦-values : 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑓(−𝑥); 𝑓(0) can have any value
ODD functions: Opposite 𝑥-values have _________________ 𝑦-values : 𝑓(𝑥) = −𝑓(−𝑥); 𝑓(0) must be 0 or undefined

1. Determine if each graph represents a function that has even symmetry, odd symmetry, or neither.
a. b. c.

d. e. f.

2. Complete each table below to represent a function that has even symmetry, odd symmetry, or neither, as
indicated for each.

𝒙 𝒇(𝒙) 𝒙 𝒇(𝒙) 𝒙 𝒇(𝒙) 𝒙 𝒇(𝒙) 𝒙 𝒇(𝒙) 𝒙 𝒇(𝒙)

−8 4 −5 −2 9 −12 −15 −12 −15 −7 −1


−4 −3 −5 −1 11 −10 −10 −2

0 0 0 0 0 0 0
4 2 3 1 10 −13 10 −13 2 3

8 5 6 2 12 12 7
EVEN ODD NEITHER EVEN ODD NEITHER
3. Each graph below is only the right or the left half of the entire graph. Draw the other half of the function so
that the graph displays even symmetry, then repeat for odd symmetry. An example is given.

Example: Even: Odd:


Opp x’s have same y’s Opp x’s have opp y’s

a. Even: Odd:

b. Even: Odd:

c. Even: Odd:

d. Even: Odd:
