Classify the following functions as even, odd, or neither.

(a) cos (2?t) tri (t ? 1)
(b) sin (2?t) rect (t / 5)




(a) Neither

Cosine is even but the shifted triangle is neither even nor odd which means it has a non-zero even part and a non-zero odd part. So the product also has a non-zero even part and a non-zero odd part.



Odd
