ii. If f is even then fˆ (n ) = fˆ (−n ) and we get a cos series.
iii. If f is odd then fˆ (n ) = fˆ (−n ) and we get a sin series.
iv. If f (x + π ) = f (x ) for all x ∈ R, then fˆ (n ) = 0 for all n odd.
v. f (x ) ∈ R for a.e. x iff fˆ (n ) = fˆ (−n ), for every n ∈ Z.

the academic year 2015-2016. Though it might cover several aspects of the module, it should not be considered a
representative of the module’s exam.
