    even odd
    POLYNOMIAL FUNCTIONS
    A function is called a polynomial if
    f(x) = anxn + an-1xn-1 + … + a2x2 + a1x +a0

    where n is a nonnegative integer and the numbers a0, a1, a2, …, an are
    constants called the coefficients of the polynomial.

    Periodic functions sin(x ) and cos(x )


    are defined to be the lengths of sides
    of a special triangle according to the
    following drawing

    Angles are expressed in


    radiant and grow counter
    clock-wise
    As you can notice one is the translation of the other and vice versa. In fact

    sin(x +p/2) = cos(x)


    sinx
    −1 ≤ sin(x ) ≤ 1
    sin(x + π) = − sin(x )
    sin(x + 2π) = sin(x )
    sin(x + π/2) = cos(x )

    Definition
    We define period of a function the least T ∈R such that f (x + T ) = f(x) →2p

    Definition
    We define amplitude of a periodic function the difference between the greatest and the smallest value reached by
    the function itself. →2
    Definition
    We define range of a periodic function the intervals of values between the greatest and the smallest values
    reached by the function itself → [-1; 1]

    DOMAIN OF A FUNCTION

    • Finding the domain of a function: the most common rules are:

    1. Denominators not zero

    2. Arguments of even roots greater or equal zero

    3. Arguments of logarithmic functions greater than zero.

    Solve:
    Look at the graphs above and determine which one is
    the correct statement among any block (you can use
    the equations
    written near the lines to help yourself)
    Look at the graph of a function f in the figure above and say if the following
    claims are true or false.
    LIMITS
    Given a real function of a real variable f (x),
    we will say that this function tends to the limit l for x-> 0,
    where x0 is an accumulation point for the field of existence of f,
    if we can make the difference arbitrarily small | f (x) -l |,
    provided we take x sufficiently close to x0. More strictly:
    Limit of a function
    • Consider the function:

    If the input get closer anc closer to x=1 we can compute the
    output:
    Limit of a function
    • Consider the function:

    If the input get closer anc closer to x=1 we can compute the
    output:
    if we can make the values of f(x) arbitrarily close to L (as close to L as
    we like) by taking x to be sufficiently close to a (on either side of a) but
    not equal to a.

    Pay attention to:


    1. the words “arbitrarily” close and “sufficiently” close. What does it mean?
    2. the words “not equal to a”. This means that we never consider what happens in
    a. In fact, the function does not even need to be defined at a!

    3. the words “on either side of a”. What does it mean?


    Limit of a function

    To Compute the limit of the function We have to calculate the velues of the Function
    when r approaches the value 0 from the right and from the left, that is, for larger
    and smaller values of zero
    LIMIT LAWS : c is a costant and the limits exist
