  2. Image (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_(mathematics)

    In mathematics, for a function , the image of an input value is the single output value produced by when passed . The preimage of an output value is the set of input values that produce . More generally, evaluating at each element of a given subset of its domain produces a set, called the " image of under (or through) ".

  3. Domain of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_of_a_function

    In mathematics, the domain of a function is the set of inputs accepted by the function. It is sometimes denoted by or , where f is the function. In layman's terms, the domain of a function can generally be thought of as "what x can be". [1] More precisely, given a function , the domain of f is X. In modern mathematical language, the domain is ...

  4. Range of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_of_a_function

    Range of a function. is a function from domain X to codomain Y. The yellow oval inside Y is the image of . Sometimes "range" refers to the image and sometimes to the codomain. In mathematics, the range of a function may refer to either of two closely related concepts: the codomain of the function, or. the image of the function.

  5. Function (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_(mathematics)

    t. e. In mathematics, a function from a set X to a set Y assigns to each element of X exactly one element of Y. [1] The set X is called the domain of the function [2] and the set Y is called the codomain of the function. [3] Functions were originally the idealization of how a varying quantity depends on another quantity.

  6. Codomain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Codomain

    In mathematics, a codomain or set of destination of a function is a set into which all of the output of the function is constrained to fall. It is the set Y in the notation f: X → Y. The term range is sometimes ambiguously used to refer to either the codomain or the image of a function. A codomain is part of a function f if f is defined as a ...

  7. Inverse trigonometric functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Inverse_trigonometric_functions

    A right triangle with sides relative to an angle at the point. Inverse trigonometric functions are useful when trying to determine the remaining two angles of a right triangle when the lengths of the sides of the triangle are known. Recalling the right-triangle definitions of sine and cosine, it follows that.

  8. Support (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Support_(mathematics)

    In mathematics, the support of a real-valued function is the subset of the function domain containing the elements which are not mapped to zero. If the domain of is a topological space, then the support of is instead defined as the smallest closed set containing all points not mapped to zero. This concept is used widely in mathematical analysis.

  9. Domain (mathematical analysis) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_(mathematical_analysis)

    In mathematical analysis, a domain or region is a non-empty, connected, and open set in a topological space. In particular, it is any non-empty connected open subset of the real coordinate space Rn or the complex coordinate space Cn. A connected open subset of coordinate space is frequently used for the domain of a function.
