This video tutorial covers the concepts of even and odd functions, focusing on their symmetry properties. It explains how to determine if a function is even, odd, or neither using both graphical and algebraic methods. The tutorial includes examples and practice problems to reinforce understanding, highlighting the importance of symmetry in function analysis.

What is the defining characteristic of an even function?

• Symmetry with respect to the x-axis

• Symmetry with respect to the y-axis

• Symmetry with respect to the origin

• No symmetry
