The above theorems allow us to build
continuous functions from other
continuous functions. For example,
knowing that f(x) = x and g(x) = c are
continuous, we can conclude that any
polynomial,

is continuous as well. We also know that
functions such as f(x) = sin (e") are
continuous without having to rely on the
definition.
