What is POINT SYMMETRY?
Point Symmetry is when every part has a matching part that is ...... the same distance from the central point ...... but in the opposite direction.It looks the same when viewed from opposite directions, such as left vs right, or if turned upside down.It is sometimes called Origin Symmetry.

Example:
A glider is flying above a field. The glider spots the field at a 9 angle of depression. The glider is flying at an altitude of 100 m. How many kilometers is the glider from the point 100 m above the field?
Hint: Choose a variable for the horizontal distance of the glider from the point above the field.
Choose a variable for the horizontal distance of the glider from the point directly above the field.
Let x = the horizontal distance of the glider from the point 100 m above the field.

Area under a Curve
The area between the graph of y = f(x) and the x-axis is given by the definite integral below. This formula gives a positive result for a graph above the x-axis, and a negative result for a graph below the x-axis.
Note: If the graph of y = f(x) is partly above and partly below the x-axis, the formula given below generates the net area. That is, the area above the axis minus the area below the axis.
Formula:

Example 1:
Find the area between y = 7 – x2 and the x-axis between the values x = –1 and x = 2.
