Just want to verify

##e^{jx\cos(\theta)}## is EVEN function respect to ##\theta## as ##e^{jx\cos(-\theta)}=e^{jx\cos(\theta)}##

BUT

##e^{jx\sin\theta\;}## is neither ODD nor EVEN because ##\;e^{jx\sin(-\theta)}=e^{-jx\sin(\theta)}\neq\;^+_- e^{jx\sin\theta}##

Thanks

Thanks

Also ##\sin(x\cos\theta)## is an EVEN function as ##\sin[x\cos(-\theta)]=sin(x\cos\theta)##.

Thanks for your help.
 
Yes, w.r.t to theta.

What is w.r.t?
