Parent Functions and Transformations

Applying vertical and horizontal translations, stretches, and reflections to base functional forms.

Key Questions

  2. 2How can we predict the shape of a graph by analyzing its algebraic parameters?
  3. 3Why do horizontal transformations often appear to act counter-intuitively compared to vertical ones?
