Functional Relation

The document defines and explains functions and relations. It discusses: - Functions have a domain (set of inputs) and range (set of outputs). A function performs an operation on an input to produce an output. - Functions can be represented by equations like y=f(x) where x is the independent variable and y is the dependent variable. - Types of functions include even/odd functions, inverse functions, and composite functions. - Relations relate elements of two sets using operations like equality. Relations can be reflexive (relating an element to itself), symmetric (if a relates to b then b relates to a), and transitive (if a relates to b and b relates to c

Functions
Domain Range

f
x y =f(x)

A function is an operation performed on an input (x) to produce


an output (y = f(x)).

The Domain of f is the set of all allowable inputs (x values)

The Range of f is the set of all outputs (y values)


Functions
Any mathematical relation between two
or more variables is known as functions

• Y = 3x³ - 5x + 7
• Z = 2x³ - 5xy + 4y3
• here “y” is a function of “x” where “x” is known as
independent variable and “y” is known as
dependent variable
Representation of functions

Function are representation by

• Y = f(x) or y = ф (x)
• Z = g (x,y)
Representation of functions

Example:- If f (x) = X2 – 5 evaluate f(3)


f(-4) f(5) and f(1)

Solutions:- f(x) = X2 – 5
• f(3) = 9-5 = 4
• f(-4) = 16-5 = 11
• f(5) = 25-5 = 20
• f(1) = 1-5 = -4
Types of functions
Even and odd functions:- If a function f(x) is such
that f(-x) = f(x) than it is even function

Where as in odd functions f(-x) = -f(x)

Examples: f(x) = X2 + 2 X4
• f (–x) = (–x )2 + 2 (–x )4 = X2 + 2 X4 = f(x)
• Hence f(x) = X2 + 2 X4 is an even function.
• On the other hand if f(-x) = – f(x) then f(x) is said to be an odd
function
Functions

Examples : f(x) = 5x + 6x3

f(-x) = 5(-x ) + 6(-x)3 = -5x - 6x3 =


-(5x + 6x3) Hence 5x + 6x3 is an odd
function.
Functions

Inverse functions:- if y = f(x) than


• x = g(y)

It is represented by f-1
Functions

Composite functions:- A function


of function is composite function
• y = f(u),u = g(x)
• fog(x)
Periodic functions

A function f (x) in which the range of the


independent variable can be separated
into equal sub intervals such that the
graph of the function is the same in each
Basic function operations

( f + g )( x ) = f ( x ) + g ( x ) Sum

( f – g )( x ) = f ( x ) – g ( x ) Difference

( f g )( x ) = f ( x ) g ( x ) Product

f  f (x)
(f =
g )( x ) =  (x) , g (x) ≠ 0 Quotient

some mathematical relations (say) >,<,= etc.
• It is represented by either (a,b) or a R b

Example :-
• A = {1,2,3}
• B = {1,2,3……10}
• Relation :- perfect square
• 1 R 1, 2 R 4, 3 R 9
Relations
Example:- A = {1,2,3}
• B = {1,2,3……10}

Relation :- perfect square

1 R 1, 2 R 4, 3 R 9

Relation:- >(greater than)

2 R 1, 3 R 1, 3 R 2
Types of Relations
Reflexive Relation

Symmetric Relation

Transitive Relation

Equivalence Relation
Reflexive Relation

Let s = (a,b,c…..)be any set then the relation R


is a subset of the product set SxS
• If R contains all ordered pairs of the form (a,a) in SxS,
then R is called reflexive. In a reflexive relation ‘a’ is
related to itself
• Example:- ‘Is equal to’ is a reflexive relation for a = a is
true
Symmetric Relation

If (a,b) => R ∈ (b,a) ∈ R for every


a,b ∈ S then R is called symmetric
• Example:- a=b =>b = a. Hence the
relation ‘is equal to’ is a symmetric
relation.
Transitive Relation

If (a,b,) ∈ R and (b,c) ∈ R => (a,c) => R for every


a,b,c ∈ S then R is called Transitive Relation
• Example:- a=b, b=c, => a=c, Hence the relation ‘is equal to’
is transitive relation
Equivalence Relation

A relation which is reflexive symmetric and


transitive is called an equivalence relation or
simply an equivalence, ‘is equal to’ is an
equivalence relative.
• Simply, the relation “is parallel to” on the set S of all
straight lines in a plane is an equivalence relation.
