Composition of Functions Formula: (f ∘ g)(x) = f(g(x))
Theorems
Function Composition Theorem: If f and g are functions, then the composition of f and g is defined as (f ∘ g)(x) = f(g(x)).
Inverse Function Theorem (if discussed): If f and g are inverse functions, then (f ∘ g)(x) = x and (g ∘ f)(x) = x.
