Even and Odd Functions - Concepts and Questions

A function can be classified as even, odd, or neither based on its symmetry properties.

1. **Even Functions**: A function f(x) is even if f(-x) = f(x) for all x in the domain of f.

- The graph of an even function is symmetric about the y-axis.

2. **Odd Functions**: A function f(x) is odd if f(-x) = -f(x) for all x in the domain of f.

- The graph of an odd function is symmetric about the origin.

3. **Neither Even nor Odd**: A function is neither even nor odd if it doesn't satisfy either condition.

4. **Domain**: The set of all x-values for which the function is defined.

5. **Range**: The set of all possible y-values that the function can output.

Examples

### Examples:

1. Let f(x) = x.

- Test for even: f(-x) = -x (not equal to f(x)).

- Test for odd: f(-x) = -x = -f(x). This is an odd function.

2. Let f(x) = x^2.

- Test for even: f(-x) = (-x)^2 = x^2 (equal to f(x)).


- Test for odd: f(-x) = x^2 (not equal to -f(x)). This is an even function.

3. Let f(x) = sqrt(x).

- The domain of f(x) is x >= 0.

- Test for even or odd: f(-x) is not defined for negative x. This function is neither even nor odd.

4. Let f(x) = x / (x + 1).

- Test for even: f(-x) = -x / (-x + 1) != f(x).

- Test for odd: f(-x) = -x / (x - 1) != -f(x). This is neither even nor odd.

Practice Questions

### Practice Questions:

1. Determine if the following functions are even, odd, or neither:

a) f(x) = x^3 + x

b) f(x) = |x|

c) f(x) = x / (x^2 + 1)

2. Find the domain and range of:

a) f(x) = sqrt(1 - x^2)

b) f(x) = 1 / (x - 2)

3. Sketch the graph of f(x) = x^4 - x^2 and verify its symmetry.

4. Prove whether f(x) = sin(x) is odd or even.
