Determine Which Functions are Even and Which are Odd

The video tutorial explains how to determine if functions are even, odd, or neither. It begins with an introduction to the concept of symmetry in functions and the algebraic approach to testing for even or odd properties. The tutorial then analyzes two specific functions, G and H, demonstrating the steps to simplify and test each function. The importance of careful multiplication and the impact of negative signs are emphasized. The tutorial concludes with a determination of the properties of each function based on the analysis.
