False.

A function can map several (or even all) values in the domain to a single value in the range. What it cannot do, is to map a single value in the domain to several values in the range. In other words, a function can be many-to-one (or one-to-one) but not one-to-many.


One consequence of sin30 = sin150 is that arcsine is not a function unless its range is restricted to -90 to +90 degrees - or some equivalent interval.

Is the cosine function an odd function?

No. Cosine, along with sec, is an even function. The odd functions are sin, tan, csc, and cot. The reason for this is because is you take the opposite of the y-value for the cosine function, the overall value of the function is not affected.Take, for example, cos(60 degrees), which equals POSITIVE 1/2.If you flip it over the x-axis, making the y's negative, it becomes cos(-60 degrees), or cos(300 degrees). This equals POSITIVE 1/2.Now let's look at an odd function. For example, sin(30 degrees) equals POSITIVE 1/2. Now take the opposite of this.sin(-30 degrees), or sin(330 degrees), equals NEGATIVE 1/2. This is because it is found in the fourth quadrant, where the y's are negative. Sine of theta, by definition, is y divided by r. If y is negative, sine is negative.


What is the graphic representation of cosine function?

Just like the sine function displaced by pi/2. In other words the cosine equals 1 at 0 degrees, 0 at 90 degrees, -1 at 180 and so on.


What is hotter 23 degrees celsius or 65 degrees Fahrenheit?

65 degrees Fahrenheit is hotter than 23 degrees Celsius.


What angle equals 140 degrees?

An angle that equals 140 degrees would be considered an "obtuse" angle. This is because it is greater than 90 degrees but does not exceed a straight line of 180 degrees.


Does a quadrilateral equals 180 degrees?

No because the sum of the 4 interior angles of a quadrilateral are 360 degrees.


What is the sum of one angle in a hexagon?

60 degrees because 360 degrees divided by 6 sides equals 60 degrees


On a triangle if A equals 72 degrees and b equals 47 degrees what c equals?

61 degrees (180 degrees in a triangle)


Why is y equals -8 a function?

y = -8 is a function because when graphed, it passes the vertical line test.


What is the area of a triangle if angle a equals 42 degrees angle b equals 87 degrees and angle c equals 24 degrees?

A triangle with interior angles of 42, 87 and 24 degrees doesn't exist because the angles add up to 153 degrees whereas the interior angles of any triangle always add up to 180 degrees.


The function y equals sin θ is not a function beacause sin 30 equals sin 150?

Y=sin X is a function because for each value of X, there is exactly one Y value.


What does 98 degrees converted to degrees Fahrenheit equals?

98 degrees Celsius equals 208.4 degrees F


Which is warmer 12 degrees celsius or 60 degrees Fahrenheit?

60F is warmer because 12 Celsius equals 53.6F
