Define an

Even Function

Note: It is NOT enough to know the graph is

symmetric with respect to the y-axis.

Define an

Odd Function

)()( xfxf Again, please note that it is NOT enough to know that the graph has origin

symmetry.

The graph of x = a

is…

… a vertical line.

The graph of y = a

is…

… a horizontal line.

OK…that’s enough about graphs!

If you know all this material, then you are prepared to begin

calculus… All you need now is a sharp mind, a sharp pencil and

a really big eraser!
