Study Notes
Introduction of Graphs
- Graphs are a visual representation of data, used to understand relationships between different variables.
- Graphs are useful for analyzing trends, patterns, and relationships in data, making complex information easier to comprehend.
Greatest Integer Function
- The greatest integer function, denoted by [x], gives the greatest integer less than or equal to x.
- For example, [3.2] = 3, [-2.7] = -3, and [5] = 5.
Fractional Part of Function
- The fractional part of x, denoted by {x}, is the difference between x and its greatest integer value.
- For example, {3.2} = 0.2, {-2.7} = 0.3, and {5} = 0.
- Fractional part functions are expressed as y = {x}.
### Tangent Function
- The tangent function, denoted by y = tan(x), is a periodic function with a period of π.
- Its graph has vertical asymptotes at x = (2n + 1)π/2, where n is an integer.
- Tangent functions increase strictly from -∞ to +∞ as x increases.
Exponential Functions
- Exponential functions are of the form y = a^x, where a is a positive constant and a ≠ 1.
- The function is increasing when a > 1 and decreasing when 0 < a < 1.
Logarithmic Functions
- Logarithmic functions are the inverse of exponential functions.
- The general form is y = log_a(x) where a is a positive constant and a ≠ 1.
- Logarithmic functions are defined for positive real numbers, with a domain of all real positive numbers and a range of all real numbers.
Inverse Functions
- A function is invertible if and only if it is one-to-one, meaning each input value corresponds to a unique output value.
- Inverse functions reverse the mapping of the original function.
Inverse Trigonometric Functions
- Trigonometric functions are not invertible, meaning each output value can correspond to multiple input values.
- To make trigonometric functions invertible, their domains are restricted, creating inverse trigonometric functions: sin⁻¹(x), cos⁻¹(x), tan⁻¹(x), etc.
