Lesson 1-2

Active Vocabulary even function

New Vocabulary Match the term with its definition by drawing a line to connect the two.

the x-intercept(s) of the graph of a function

line of symmetry functions that are symmetric with respect to the origin

odd function graphs that have this property can be rotated 180? with respect to a point and appear unchanged

point symmetry the solution(s) of a given equation

roots functions that are symmetric with respect to the y-axis

Chapter 1

zeros graphs that have this property can be folded along a line so that the two halves of the graph match exactly

Helping You Remember Think about the different types of line

symmetry: about the x-axis, about the y-axis, and about the origin. Provide examples of graphs illustrating each of the symmetries.
