The correct Answer is:
To solve the given problem, we need to analyze both statements regarding the function \( f(x) = \sin x \) and the definition of even functions. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement 1 The first statement claims that the function \( f(x) = \sin x \) is symmetric about the line \( x = 0 \). **Definition of Symmetry:** A function is symmetric about the y-axis (or the line \( x = 0 \)) if for every \( x \), \( f(-x) = f(x) \). **Check for \( \sin x \):** Let's check if \( \sin(-x) = \sin x \): \[ \sin(-x) = -\sin x \] This shows that \( \sin x \) is not symmetric about the y-axis. Instead, \( \sin x \) is an odd function, which means it is symmetric about the origin (not the y-axis). **Conclusion for Statement 1:** Thus, Statement 1 is **False**. ### Step 2: Analyze Statement 2 The second statement asserts that every even function is symmetric about the y-axis. **Definition of Even Functions:** A function \( f(x) \) is called even if: \[ f(-x) = f(x) \] for all \( x \) in the domain of \( f \). **Implication of Even Functions:** If a function satisfies this property, it means that the graph of the function on the left side of the y-axis mirrors the graph on the right side. Therefore, it is indeed symmetric about the y-axis. **Conclusion for Statement 2:** Thus, Statement 2 is **True**. ### Final Conclusion Based on the analysis: - Statement 1 is False. - Statement 2 is True. The correct option is that Statement 1 is False and Statement 2 is True, which corresponds to **Option 4**.
