Function Composition (f∘g)

Applying function g first, then applying function f to the result.

Inverse Function

A function that reverses another function's action, undoing the transformation.

Even Function

A function where f(-x) = f(x) for all x in its domain. Its graph is symmetrical about the y-axis.

Odd Function

A function where f(-x) = -f(x) for all x in its domain. Its graph is symmetrical about the origin.
