1. Algebra 2 1-8a Exploring Transformations Translations

2. Vocabulary Transformation – Changing a graph’s size, shape or position Translation – Shifting a graph horizontally or vertically

3. Big Idea We are going to explore graphing the absolute value function, from this basic format y = |x – h| + k

4. Calculator Exploration Work with a graphing calculator Turn it on Select the graphing icon

5. Calculator Exploration Add a graph f1(x) = |x| You may click and drag the graph to be lower on the screen |x| is entered abs(x) This can also be found in the function list (open book key)

6. Calculator Exploration

7. Add two more graphs f2(x) = |x| + 4 f3(x) = |x| - 3 CTRL – G Opens the f(x) line on the screen

8. Calculator Exploration How does increasing “k” affect the graph’s location? Arrow over the graph to “see” which formula goes with which graph

9. Quick Questions Did the graph shape change? Does the graph point in the same direction? How much did the graph move up? How much did the graph move down?

10. Calculator Exploration Open a new graphing page “Home”, “icon”

11. Calculator Exploration Add three different graphs f4(x) = |x| f5(x) = |x + 3| f6(x) = |x - 4|

12. Calculator Exploration How does Changing “h” affect the graph?

13. Quick Questions Did the graph shape change? Does the graph point in the same direction? How much did the graph move left? How much did the graph move right?

14. Think Deep If adding to “k” moves positively along the y- axis, why does add to “h” move negatively along the x-axis?

15. Think Deep If adding to “k” moves positively along the y- axis, why does add to “h” move negatively along the x-axis? Think “inputs” and “outputs”

16. Think Deep This “slide” is the input (x-axis) through our projector, the Smartboard screen is our output (y-axis). If I could add to the output, it would raise the picture on the screen. (y-axis) If I could add to the input, it would move the screen to the right (without moving the projector). So the graph appears to move to the left.

17. Think Deep Math is always consistent, so line up the constants and the variables like such y – k = |x – h|

18. Mirror y – k = |x – h| When we add to the output, the function moves up When we subtract from the output, the function moves down

19. Summary y – k = |x – h| When we add to the input, the function moves to the left When we subtract from the input, the function moves to the right

20. Summary

21. Example Graph the following equations (without the calculator) y=|x| – 8 y=|x – 5| y=|x + 4| + 3

22. Practice

23. Calculator A few more calculator basics Click and drag on the axis to zoom Click and drag on the background to move it all around

40. Calculator Exploration Change the first graph again f1(x) = x 2 + 1 CTRL – G Opens the f(x) line on the screen

41. Question Now what is the equation for y 2, in terms of x? How do the two graphs compare?

42. Calculator Exploration Change the first graph again f1(x) = (x – 3) 2 + 2

43. Question In general how are the two graphs of y=f(x) and y= – f(x) related?

44. Calculator Exploration Again change the graph

45. Conjecture How will the following graphs look? f2(x) = – f1(x) f2(x) = f1(– x) f2(x) =– f1(– x)

46. Quick Questions What shape does the square root function look most like? How can it look like the whole shape? Why is it on its side? How could you write a function so the shape was symmetrical?

54. Summary f(x) = –f(x) When y is replaced with negative y, the function is reflected in the x-axis

55. Summary f(x) = f(–x) When x is replaced with negative x, the function is reflected in the y-axis
