Even and Odd Functions
• Even functionsare symmetrical about the y-axis. They
have a line of symmetry (reflection)
about the y-axis.

The vertex is an example of a
turning point.
For polynomials of degree greater than 2, finding turning points is not an elementary procedure
and usually requires the use of calculus, however:
•To find the x-intercepts, we put y = 0 and solve the corresponding polynomial equation, if
possible.
y = x3 + x2 − 6x = x(x − 2)(x + 3).
To get a picture of the overall shape of the curve, we can substitute some test points.
With this information, we can begin to give a sketch of the graph of y = x(x − 2)(x + 3).

Domain of cosine and sine is (−∞,∞),
their range is [−1,1].
y = sin(x)
y = sin(x) + 3
y = 3sin(x)
y = sin(3x)
y = sin(x – 3)
y = 3sin(3x-9)+3
y = sin(x)
y = sin(x/3)
Graphs of cosine
y = cos(x)
y = cos(x) + 3
y = 3cos(x)
y = cos(3x)
y = cos(x – 3) y = 3cos(3x – 9) + 3
y = cos(x)
y = cos(x/3)

Equations of the form
Use the trigonometric identity for sin( ) to show that this equation
can be expressed in the form.
Inverse functions
What is an Inverse?
Examples:
f(x) = x – 3 f-1(x) = x + 3
g(x) = x ,x≥0 g-1(x) = x2 , x ≥ 0
h(x) = 2x h-1(x) = ½ x
k(x) = -x + 3 k-1(x)= -(x –

To find the inverse of a
relation algebraically,
interchange x and y and
solve for y.
Example: Find the inverse relation
algebraically for the function f (x) = 3x +
2.

Find the inverse, then verify the inverse
algebraically.
