Lesson: Even and Odd Functions Mathematics • Second Year of Secondary School

In this lesson, we will learn how to decide whether a function is even, odd, or neither both from a graph of the function and from its rule.

Lesson Plan

Students will be able to

determine the parity of a function, classifying it as even, odd, or neither,
understand the algebraic conditions that need to be satisfied for a function to be
- even: ,
- odd: ,
understand the graphical condition of symmetry needed for a function to be
- even: reflectional symmetry in the ,
- odd: rotational symmetry of order 2 about the origin.
