Denition. A mapping is dened as a function f : A B where rule is y = f (x)
such that
1. (for every) x A
2. there exists a unique y B
Violates for every Violates uniqueness
The mappings above are not functions since both violate one part among
the two parts stated in the denition.

))
Givenfunction y = f (x) we canplot the graphof the functionby plotting the
x val ues along x axi s and y val ues along y axi s. Such that any point
on the graph of y = f (x) will be coordinate of the form (x, f (x))
Fact. Vertical line test : If a vertical line intersects the graph of a mapping in
exactly one point then graph represents a function else its not a function.

1.1.1 Domain(D
f
) of f : A B
For a given function f : A B, D
f
={x : x A such that f is well-dened}
Example. Find the domain of the function f : R C where f is real valued
function and given by the rule
f (x) =

The function f cannot exist if x

1.2 Inverse of a function 1 FUNCTIONS
1.1.3 Hints for nding Range
If the function is composition of continuous functions then the resulting com-
posite is also continuous and hence its easy to nd the range by just trying to
nd the max and min of the function in the given domain.
1.2 Inverse of a function
1.2.1 Types of functions
Objective of this section is study characteristics of functions that are having an
inverse. For that we need to investigate the kinds of functions.
Denition. One-One or Injective functions
A function f : A B is one-one if for any x

, x

A, f (x
1
) = f (x
2
) = x

x

Below is an example of one-one function.
Both are one-one functions
Denition. Many to one function
A function f : A B such that there exists atleast one y B which has more
than one preimage in A

1.2 Inverse of a function 1 FUNCTIONS
Many-to-one function
Fact. Horizontal line Test : If a horizontal line cuts a graph of a function in one
point then the function is one-one else its many to one function.
Denition. Onto or Surjective function
A function f : A B is onto if for every element y B is related to some
element in A
Not an Onto function (into)
No preimage
Denition. Into function
A function f : A B is into if there exists atleast one y B which has no
preimage in A. Above example is an into function. So we can say that not into
means onto and not onto mean into.
Denition. Bijective function
A function f : A B is bijective if its both injective and onto. Observe why
should it be bijective.
So we have attained our objective (though partially since we will be study-
ing characteristics of inverse in a separate section) of understanding what a
function requires for its inverse to exist.

1.3 Algebra of functions 1 FUNCTIONS
1.2.2 Problems
Problem1. Total number of functions f : A B where n(A) =m and n(B) =n
Solution : Every element of B can be related to an element of A in m ways.
And in all we have n elements in set B hence total ways =m
n
Problem2. Total number of one to one functions from A to B as dened above.
First element of B can be related to an element of A in m ways. Second
element of B can be related to an element of A in m1 ways. And so on the n
t h
element of B can be related to an element of A in m(n1) ways. So total one
one functions

An function f : A B is even if

, evenfunctionare reectionin yaxi s or we cansay symmetric
about y axi s
1
Given y = f (x),
replacing x x we get y = f (x) which is produced by reecting y = f (x) in y axis.
replacing f (x) f (x) we get y = f (x) which is produced by reecting y = f (x) in x
axis.
Now odd function has both these graphs coinciding as given above (in the denition of
odd function).
2
Note: f (x) is produced by reecting f (x) in y axi s and the denition claims that both
these graphs are same, or coincide hence we get that on ipping a graph about the y-axis we
get the same graph this implies that the function is symmetric about y axi s.

3.2.4 Periodic functions
Denition. A function f : A B is periodic with period T if
f (x +T) = f (x) x D
f
Moreover if we are able to nd the smallest T R
+
which satises the de-
nition of periodicity above then such a period T is termed as the fundamental
period of f

(b) 2 if n is any real number except even integer.
2. Functions tan

n
x, | sinx|, | cosx|, | secx| and| cscx| are periodic with
period
3. If function f (x) is periodic with the period T then the function (x) =
af (bx +c) +d is periodic with period
T
|b|
4. If function z(x) is periodic with period T then the composite function
function
(x) = f (g( (y(z(x +))) ))
is periodic functionirrespective of whether other outside functionfrom f
to y are periodic or not. Note but the outside functions f to y may change
the fundamental period of (x). So the fundamental period if changes
will be less than T.
Proof. y =z(x) is periodic = z(x +T) =z(x) and similarly
(x) = f (g(h( (y(z(x))) )))
= (x +T) = f (g(h( (y(z(x +T))) )))
= f (g(h( (y(z(x))) )))
= (x)
Hence z(x) is periodic = (x) is periodic.
3
Note : T is a real number, so ? is independent of x and that is what we can use, if we are
never able to free (or get one) T free of x then the function is not periodic or aperiodic.

Example 9. Function sin(x

sinx
is periodic with periodic with period 2
though the function e

Note the converse is not true, if the function (x) is periodic, still z(x)
might be not period.

Else if they are both irrationals of different form (say and

2 ) or one
rational and other irrational (say and 1 ) then the linear combination
(x) is not going to be periodic.
7. If functions f and g are periodic with period T

such that T

then you should followalgebraic or graphical approach to nd the period
of linear combination (x) =f (x) +g(x)

(But
LCM method gets us , which is wrong since T

here)
| sinx| +| cosx| =

which has period

due to | sin2x| while +1 or

Example 14. Function y =sec

period though with the LCM method we get the period as . Hence we
should not use the LCM method when T

3.2.5 Illustrative Problems
Discuss periodicity and if periodic state the period
1. f (x) =(sin2x)

and g(x) =

Both are periodic with periods and 2 respectively. Since f (x +2) =
f (x) and g(x +2) =g(x) x in its domain.

This function satises the period function denition
f (x +T) = f (x) x D

LCM(a, b) exists if they are both rationals or irrationals of the same form. Irrationals of
the same form means say 3

f (x +T) = 2 = f (x) for any x D
f
. Hence the function is periodic with
period T. Now we need to nd the smallest positive T. But such a T
doesnt exist hence we say that constant function are periodic but with no
fundamental period.
3. f (x) =2sin(3x +4) 5
We learned tranformations, and from there we see that period is only af-
fected by change in the structure of the funciton along x axi s. Can you
guess which of 2, 3, 4, 5 is deforming the structure of sinx function to get
us change along x (expansion or contraction) right! 3
Hence the period of the function f is

4. f (x) =| sinx|
The period of sinx is 2 and | | transforms sinx such that the part below
x axis is reected above x axis symmetrically. Hence the period halves.

same (thinking interms of transformations, that we have already learnt.

6. f (x) =| sinx| +| cosx|
This problemis interesting, Note here we might feel that both these func-
tions are periodic, with period for each. Note but the period of f is not
LCM of both the periods. If we think using denition then we see that
f (x +

2
) = f (x) to make

2
the period. But graphically that is more evi-
dent.

8. h(x) =| sinx| +| cosx| +| sinx +cosx|
Period of | sinx| and | cosx| is and that of | sinx +cosx| is 2, hence the
resultant period of h(x) is LCM(, 2) =2
9. f (x) =[x] {x} +tanx
Period of [x] {x} is 1 and that of tanx is , so their is no way both added
would be period since the is no LCM of 1 and

1. y = f (x)
The function y = f (x) is produced by the transformation of replacing
x x which geometrically is met by reecting y = f (x) in y axi s
2. y = f (x)
(a) The function y =f (x) is produced by the tranformation of replac-
ing y y which geometrically is met by reecting y = f (x) in
x axi s.

3.4.1 Transformations based on above two transformations
1. y = f (|x|)
= even in variable x
= Hence symmetric about y-axis
= Draw y = f (x) on the positive x axis (note : only positive x-axis part
of the plane) and then take the reection of this part onto the negative x
axis to complete the graph of y = f (|x|)
Example 17. Draw the graph of y =log|x|
