Answer:

  4 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

If you draw a vertical line down the middle of the square, you divide it into two triangles that are congruent to the smaller triangles shown in the figure. Hence each of those triangles has an area of 1/2 square unit.

After you have divided the square as above, you see that two smaller triangles are identical in area to the larger triangles. So, each of those has an area of 2(1/2) = 1 square unit.

Then the total of areas is ...

  2 small triangles + square + 2 large triangles = 2(1/2) + 1 + 2(1) = 4

The area of the rectangle is 4 square units.

Is the function even odd or neither
FrozenT [24]
A function being even or odd refers to the symmetry of the graph. 

Refer to the graphs attached to this answer.

To test if a function is even or odd, replace x in the function with -x. If the new graph is exactly the same as the old graph, the function is even. If not, multiply the entire function by -1. If the new graph is symmetrical to the y-axis, then the function is odd. If it isn't symmetrical, the function is neither even nor odd.

The first graph is the original function. The second graph is the function with x replaced by -x. The third graph is the function multiplied by -1.

The second graph is not equal to the original function. The third graph is symmetrical to the y-axis.

This function is odd.
