FUNCTION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Highschool: Function y = f(x), x independent variable , y


dependent variable
General: Function f is a rule that for each object x A we can
find exactly one object y B. We write: f: A B. A is called
the DOMAIN of the function f; B is called the RANGE of f.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Graph: Curve M(x,f(x))

Vertical line test: One x One y

LINEAR FUNCTION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Linear function (1st degree of x): y = mx + b. Graph of linear


function: A line Linear equation: ax + by + c = 0.
The slope m of one
line (d): y = mx + b
shows the direction:
m > 0: d is up
m < 0: d is down
Vertical line x = C
does not have slope!

QUADRATIC FUNCTIONS

Quadratic function (2nd degree of x): y = ax2 + bx + c. Graph of


quadratic function: parabola. Distinguish 2 case: a > 0, a < 0.

a > 0:
Upward

a < 0:
Downward

LOGARITHMIC FUNCTIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Definition : y = log a x x = a y (a > 0, a 1, x > 0 )

ONE TO ONE FUNCTION


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What

is

the

difference

between two functions f & g?


Answer: x y f(x) f(y)

f is one to one. But


g(3) = g(2) g is not so!
A function f is called a one
to one if it never takes
on the same value twice: x

y f(x) f(y)

HORIZONTAL LINE TEST


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Horizontal Line Test: A


function s one to one if
and only if no horizontal
line intersects its graph
more than once
Example: Is the function g(x) = x2 one
to one?
Answer 1: No as g(1) = g(1)
Answer 2: Use horizontal line test

INVERSE FUNCTION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Definition: Let f be a one to one function from domain A


to (range) B, that means f(A) = B. Than its INVERSE
FUNCTION f1 : B A defined by: f1(y) = x f(x) = y
Example: Logarithmic function

y = ln x
x = ey

x > 0, y R

Remark 1: f: A B f1 : B A
Remark 2: Do not mistake the 1 in f1
for an exponent: f1(x) doesnt mean
1
1
. The reciprocal
= f 1 ( x )
f (x )
f (x )

RULE TO FIND INVERSE FUNCTION


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How to find the inverse function of a one to one f(x)


Step 1: Write y = f(x) (1)
Step 2: Solve (1) for x in terms of y (if possible)
Step 3: To express f1 as a function of x, interchange x
and y. The resulting function is y = f1(x)

INVERSE TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTION


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Four basic inverse trigonometric functions:

y = sin 1 x = arcsin x, 1 x 1,

x = sin y

y = cos 1 x = arccos x, 1 x 1, 0 y x = cos y
y = tan

x = arctan x, x R ,

< y<

x = tan y

y = cot 1 x = arc cot x, x R , 0 < y < x = cot y

Remember :

arcsin x , arctan x ;

arccos x , arc cot x [0; ]

We get directly hyperbolic formulas from all familiar
trigonometric formulas by changing cosx coshx and the sign
of any product of two sinx. For example: sin2x sinh2x

HYPERBOLIC FORMULAS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Trigonometric

Hyperbolic

sin 2 x + cos 2 x = 1
cos ( x y ) = cos x cos y m sin x sin y

ch 2 x sh 2 x = 1
ch ( x y ) = ch xch y sh xsh y

sin ( x y ) = sin x cos y sin y cos x

sh ( x y ) = sh xch y sh ych x

cos (2 x ) = 2 cos 2 x 1 = 1 2 sin 2 x

ch (2 x ) = 2ch 2 x 1 = 1 + 2sh 2 x
sh (2 x ) = 2sh xch x

sin (2 x ) = 2 sin x cos x
