  5. Programme F10: Functions Processing numbers A function is a process that accepts an input, processes the input and produces an output. If the input number is labelled x and the function is labelled f then the output can be labelled f (x) – the effect of f acting on x. Here the action of the function f is described as ^2 – raising to the power 2

  6. Programme F10: Functions Processing numbers Functions are rules but not all rules are functions A function of a variable x is a rule that describes how a value of the variable is manipulated to generate a value of the variable y. The rule is often expressed in the form of an equation y = f (x) with the proviso that for any single input x there is just one output y – the function is said to be single valued. Different outputs are associated with different inputs. Other rules may not be single valued, for example: This rule is not a function.

  7. Programme F10: Functions Processing numbers Functions are rules but not all rules are functions All the input numbers x that a function can process are collectively called the function’s domain. The complete collection of numbers y that correspond to the numbers in the domain is called the range (or co-domain) of the function.

  8. Programme F10: Functions Processing numbers Functions and the arithmetic operations Functions can be combined under the action of the arithmetic operators provided care is taken over their common domains.

  9. Programme F10: Functions Processing numbers Inverses of functions The process of generating the output of a function from the input is assumed to be reversible so that what has been constructed can be de-constructed. The rule that describes the reverse process is called the inverse of the function which is labelled:

  10. Programme F10: Functions Processing numbers Graphs of inverses The ordered pairs of input-output numbers that are used to generate the graph of a function are reversed for the inverse function. Consequently, the graph of the inverse of a function is the shape of the graph of the original function reflected in the line f (x) = x.

  11. Programme F10: Functions Processing numbers The graph of y = x3

  12. Programme F10: Functions Processing numbers The graph of y = x1/3

  13. Programme F10: Functions Processing numbers The graphs of y = x3 and y = x1/3 plotted together

  14. Programme F10: Functions Processing numbers Composition – ‘function of a function’ Trigonometric functions Exponential and logarithmic functions Odd and even functions

  15. Programme F10: Functions Composition – ‘function of a function’ Chains of functions can by built up where the output from one function forms the input to the next function in the chain. For example: The function f is composed of the two functions a and b where:

  19. Programme F10: Functions Trigonometric functions Rotation The tangent Period Amplitude Phase difference Inverse trigonometric functions Trigonometric equations Equations of the form acos x + bsin x = c

  20. Programme F10: Functions Trigonometric functions Rotation For angles greater than zero and less than /2 radians the trigonometric ratios are well defined and can be related to the rotation of the radius of a unit circle:

  21. Programme F10: Functions Trigonometric functions Rotation By continuing to rotate the radius of a unit circle the trigonometric ratios can extended into the trigonometric functions, valid for any angle:

  22. Programme F10: Functions Trigonometric functions Rotation The sine function:

  23. Programme F10: Functions Trigonometric functions Rotation The cosine function:

  24. Programme F10: Functions Trigonometric functions The tangent The tangent is the ratio of the sine to the cosine:

  25. Programme F10: Functions Trigonometric functions Period Any function whose output repeats itself over a regular interval is called a periodic function, theregular interval being called the period of the function. The sine and cosine functions are periodic with period 2. The tangent function is periodic with period .

  26. Programme F10: Functions Trigonometric functions Amplitude Every periodic function possesses an amplitude that is given as the difference between the maximum value and the average value of the output taken over a single period.

  27. Programme F10: Functions Trigonometric functions Phase difference The phase difference of a periodic function is the interval of the input by which the output leads or lags behind the reference function.

  28. Programme F10: Functions Trigonometric functions Inverse trigonometric functions If the graph of y = sin x is reflected in the line y = x a function does not result.

  29. Programme F10: Functions Trigonometric functions Inverse trigonometric functions Cutting off the upper and lower parts of the graph produces a single-valued function that is the inverse sine function.

  30. Programme F10: Functions Trigonometric functions Inverse trigonometric functions Similarly for the inverse cosine function and the inverse tangent function.

  31. Programme F10: Functions Trigonometric functions Trigonometric equations A simple trigonometric equation is one that involves just a single trigonometric expression: For example:

  32. Programme F10: Functions Trigonometric functions Trigonometric equations As another example:

  33. Programme F10: Functions Trigonometric functions Equations of the form acos x + bsin x = c The equation acos x + bsin x = c can be rewritten as: Remembering that multiple solutions can be found by using the graph.

  36. Programme F10: Functions Exponential and logarithmic functions Exponential functions The exponential function is expressed by the equation: Where e is the exponential number 2.7182818 . . . The value of ex can be found to any level of precision desired from the series expansion:

  37. Programme F10: Functions Exponential and logarithmic functions Exponential functions The graphs of ex and e–x are:

  38. Programme F10: Functions Exponential and logarithmic functions Exponential functions The general exponential function is given by y = axwhere a > 0. Since a = elna the general exponential function can be written as:

  39. Exponential and logarithmic functions Exponential functions The inverse exponential function is the logarithmic function expressed by the equation:

  40. Programme F10: Functions Exponential and logarithmic functions Indicial equations An indicial equation is an equation where the variable appears as an index and the solution of such equations requires application of logarithms.

  43. Programme F10: Functions Odd and even functions Given a function f with output f (x) then, assuming f (−x) is defined: If f (−x)= f (x) the function f is called an even function If f (−x) = f (x)the function f is called an odd function

  44. Programme F10: Functions Odd and even functions Odd and even parts If, given f (x) where f (−x) is defined then:

  45. Programme F10: Functions Odd and even functions Odd and even parts of the exponential function The even part of the exponential function is: The odd part of the exponential function is: Notice:

  46. Programme F10: Functions Odd and even functions Limits of functions There are times when a function has no defined output for a particular value of x, say x0, but that it does have a defined value for values of x arbitrarily close to x0. For example: However, so when x is close to 1 f (x) is close to 2. it is said that: the limit of f (x) as x approaches the value x = 1 is 2

  47. Programme F10: Functions Odd and even functions Limits of functions The limit of f (x) as x approaches the value x = 1 is 2. Symbolically this is written as:
