SUMMARY
The Fourier Transform of the function f(-x) can be derived using the properties of even and odd functions. If f(-x) is even, then it simplifies to f(x), while if f(-x) is odd, it becomes -f(x). The general equation for the Fourier Transform is expressed as F(f(-x)) = ∫ f(-x) e^(-i2πft) dt. Understanding these properties is crucial for correctly applying the Fourier Transform to functions defined over symmetric intervals.
