Answer

Replace $x$ by $x^2$ in the Maclaurin series for $f(x)$ Converses for $|x|<1$

Work Step by Step

We are given the Maclaurin series for $f$ that converges for $|x|<1$. The Maclaurin series for $f(x)$ is $\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{f^{(k)}(0)}{k!}x^k$. The Maclaurin series for $f(x^2)$ is obtained by replacing $x$ by $x^2$: $\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{f^{(k)}(0)}{k!}x^{2k}$. The Maclaurin series for $f(x^2)$ converges for: $|x^2|<1\Rightarrow |x|<1$
