If there re one or more frctions, it my be desirble to eliminte them by multiplying both sides by the common denomintor. If the eqution is proportion, you my wish to cross-multiply.

Anlytic geometry of one liner eqution: The grph of y mx + b is line with slope m nd y-intercept b. To drw the grph, find one point on it (such s (0, b)) nd then use the slope to find nother point. Drw the line joining the two points.

5 exmple: y x + 5 hs slope nd y-intercept 5. To grph the line, locte (0, 5). From tht point, go down (top of slope frction), nd over (right) (bottom of frction) to find second point.

Anlytic geometry of two liner equtions: Two distinct lines in plne re either prllel or intersecting. They re prllel if nd only if they hve the sme slope, nd hence the equtions of the lines hve no common solutions. If the lines hve unequl slopes, they intersect in one point nd their equtions hve exctly one common solution. (They re perpendiculr if their slopes re negtive reciprocls, or one is horizontl nd the other is verticl.) If one eqution is multiple of the other, ech eqution hs the sme grph, nd every solution of one eqution is solution of the other.

9 TOPIC 5: FUNCTIONS 9 A. Wht functions re nd how to write them: The re of squre depends on the side length s, nd given s, we cn find the re A for tht vlue of s. The side nd re cn be thought of s n ordered pir: (s, A). For exmple, (5, 5) is n ordered pir. Think of function s set of ordered pirs with one restriction: no two different ordered pirs my hve the sme first element. Thus {(s, A) : A is the re of the squre with side length s} is function consisting of n infinite set of ordered pirs. A function cn lso be thought of s rule: for exmple, A s is the rule for finding the re of squre, given side. The re depends on the given side nd we sy the re is function of the side. ' A f (s)' is red ' A is function of s', or ' A f of s'. There re mny functions of s, the one here is s. We write this f (s) s nd cn trnslte: the function of s is s. Sometimes we write A(s) s. This sys the re is function of s, nd specificlly, it is s. In some reltions, s x + y 5, y is not function of x, since both (, 4) nd (, -4) mke the reltion true. Problems -7: Tell whether or not ech set of ordered pirs is function: {(, ) ( 0, ) }. {( 0, 5) } {(, ) (,0) }.,., 4. {(x, y) : y x nd x is ny rel number} 5. {(x, y) : x y nd y is ny rel number} 6. {(x, y) : y nd x is ny rel number} 7. {(x, y) : x 4 nd y is ny rel number} Problems 8-: Is y function of x? 8. y 4x + x 0. ( x + y) 6 9. y x. y x B. Function vlues nd substitution: If A(s) s, A(), red A of, mens replce every s in A(s) s with, nd find the re when s is. When we do this, we find A() 9. exmple: g( x) is given: y g(x) πx exmple: g() π 9π exmple: g(7) π 7 49π exmple: g() π exmple: g(x + h) π(x + h) πx + πxh + πh. Given y f ( x) x ; complete these ordered pirs: (, ), (0, ), (, ), (, 0), (, -), ( x, ) Problems -7: Given f (x) x x+ Find:. f 6. f ( ) 4. f ( ) 7. f ( x ) 5. f ( 0) C. Composition of functions: exmple: If f (x) x, nd g( x) x, f g( x) every x in f (x) x with g( x) giving f ( g( x) ) ( g( x ), which equls (x ) x 6x + 9. exmple: g f ( ( )) g( ) ) g( 4) 4 4 is red f of g of x, nd mens replce Problems 8-6: Use f nd g s bove: 8. g( f( x) ). f( x) g( x) 9. f( g ) 4. f( x) g x) 0. g( g( x) ) 5. g( x ). f( x)+ g( x) 6. ( g( x ). f( x) g( x) exmple: If k( x) x 4x, for wht x is k( x) 0? If k( x) 0, then x 4x 0 nd since x 4x x( x 4) 0, x cn be either 0 or 4. (These vlues of x: 0 nd 4, re clled zeros of the function, becuse ech mkes the function zero.) Problems 7-0: Find x so: 7. k( x) 4 9. x is zero of x( x +) 8. k( x) 5 0. x is zero of (x x ) D. Grphing functions: An esy wy to tell whether reltion between two vribles is function or not is by grphing it: if verticl line cn be drwn which hs two or more

10 0 points in common with the grph, the reltion is not function. If no verticl line touches the grph more thn once, then it is function. exmple: x y hs this grph: Not function (the verticl line hits it more thn once). Problems -9: Tell whether or not ech of the following is function: Since y f( x), the vlues of y re the vlues of the function, which correspond to specific vlues of x. The heights of the grph bove (or below) the x-xis re the vlues of y nd so lso of the function. Thus for this grph, f is the height (vlue) of the function t x nd vlue is : At x, the vlue (height) of f ( x)is zero; in other words, f ( ) 0. Note tht f > f ( ), since > 0, nd tht f ( 0) < f( ), since f ( ) nd f ( 0) <. Problems 40-44: For this grph, tell whether the sttement is true or flse: 40. g( ) g( 0) 4. g( )> g 4. g( 0) g 44. g< g( 0) < g( 4) 4. g> g( ) To grph y f( x), determine the degree of f( x) if it is polynomil. If it is liner (first degree) the grph is line, nd you merely plot two points (select ny x nd find the corresponding y) nd drw their line. If f( x)is qudrtic (second degree), its grph is prbol, opening upwrd if the coefficient of x is positive, downwrd if negtive. To plot ny grph, it cn be helpful to find the following: ) The y-intercept (find f ( 0) to locte y-xis crossing) b) The x-intercept (find x for which f ( x) 0 x-xis crossing) c) Wht hppens to y when x is very lrge (positive) or very smll negtive? d) Wht hppens to y when x is very close to number which mkes the bottom of frction zero? e) Find x in terms of y, nd find wht hppens to x s y pproches number which mkes the bottom of frction zero. (d, e, nd sometimes c bove will help find verticl nd horizontl symptotes.) exmple: y x nlysis: qudrtic function (due to x ) y-intercept: f ( 0) x-intercepts: y x 0 so x ± exmple: y x+ ) y-intercepts: f ( 0) b) x-intercept: none, since there is no solution to y 0 x+ c) Lrge x: negtive y pproches zero; very negtive x mkes y positive nd going to zero. (So y 0, the x-xis, is n symptote line.) d) The bottom of the frction, x +, is zero if x. As x moves to from the left, y gets very lrge positive, nd if x pproches from bove, y becomes very negtive. (The line x is n symptote.)

11 Grph: e) To solve for x, multiply by x + nd divide by y to get x + y or x y y y Note tht y close to zero results in very positive or negtive x nd mens y 0 is n symptote, which we lredy found bove in prt c.

Thus the sine rtio for ngle B, bbrevited sin B, is b c. c B A b C The reciprocl of the sine rtio is the cosecnt (csc), so csc B c b.

Drw the rdius connecting line from the vertex to ny point on the circle, mking n ngle θ with the positive x-xis (θ my be ny rel number, positive mesure is counterclockwise). The coordintes (x, y) of point P together with rdius r re used to define the functions: sinθ y r, cosθ x r, tnθ y x, nd the reciprocl functions s before. (Note tht for 0<θ < π, these definitions gree P( x, y) with the right tringle definitions. Also note tht sinθ, cosθ, nd tnθ cn be ny rel number.)

The length of the rc is θ 60 C θ 60 πr, nd the rtio of the length of rc to rdius is π θ, where θ is 80 the number of degrees (nd the rtio hs no units). This is the rdin mesure ssocited with point P.

Trigonometric equtions: exmple: Solve, given tht 0 θ < π : tn θ tnθ 0. Fctoring, we get tnθ(tnθ ) 0, which mens tht tnθ 0 or tnθ. Thus θ 0 (degrees or rdins) plus ny multiple of 80 (or π ), which is n 80 (or n π ), or θ 45 ( π 4 rdins), or 45 + n 80 (or π 4 + n π ). Thus, θ cn be 0, π 4, π, or 5π 4, which ll check in the originl eqution. Problems 4-9: Solve, for 0 θ π : 4. sinθ cosθ 7. sinθ cotθ 5. sin θ + cosθ 8. cosθ tnθ 6. sin θ cos θ 9. sinθ tnθ secθ G. Grphs of trig functions: By finding vlues of sin x when x is multiple of π, we cn get quick sketch of y sin x. The sine is periodic (it repets every π, its period). sin x never exceeds one, so the mplitude of sin x is, nd we get this grph: To grph y sinx, we note tht for given vlue of x, sy x, the vlue of y is found on the grph of y sin x three times s fr from the y-xis s. Thus ll points of the grph. y sinx re found by moving ech point of y sin x grph to its previous distnce from the y- xis, showing the new grph repets times in the period of y sin x, so the period of y sin x, so the period of y sinx is π.
