For a real-valued function $f(x)$, what does it mean for $f(x)$ to be an even function versus an odd function?

Lernkarte aus dem Deck Gaokao essentials: original practice.

Antwort

Even: $f(-x) = f(x)$ (symmetric about y-axis); Odd: $f(-x) = -f(x)$ (symmetric about origin).

Erklärung

A standard consequence is that $\int_{-a}^a f(x)\,dx = 0$ for continuous odd functions, and $2\int_0^a f(x)\,dx$ for continuous even functions.
