Question

geometrically a function f(x) is said to be odd if,
​

Answer 1

Given

• function f(x)

To find

• geometrical meaning of a function being odd

Solution

• A function is said to be odd if the function is symmetric about the origin.

• Such a function would be equal to the left of the origin as well the right of the origin

• Symmetricity is a main component for drawing a graph of a polynomial. Therefore we would be needed to check if the function is odd or even

• geometrical verification of the function would not be right choice always therefore we have algebraic method also for checking if the function is old.

• inserting negative X in the place of x and observing the changes in the function (if function becomes -f(x)) is the preferred method for checking the function.
