Reflections Stretching and Shrinking
Objective: Students will be able to determine if the graph is flipped over the x axis and if it is stretched or shrunk compared to the parent function.
2
Parabolas We already talked about the left/right shift and the up/down shift, depending on the equation and the graph We related this to the vertex of the equation or graph Given: Where (h,k) is the vertex and also the translation of the graph
3
Reflection of the x-axis
What would happen to the regular table of data of the parent function to get this to happen All the y coordinates would be negative Take the opposite of whatever the answer is What would the equation look like What would the graph look like
4
Stretch and Shrink or Fat and Thin
More from the equation than getting from the graph Blue is parent function Which one is stretched Black/Thin or skinny Which one is shrunk Red/ Fat or wide This means vertically along the y axis
5
Given the equation can you describe the transformation
Translation Reflected Stretch or Shrink Sketch Does order matter – do I have to translate first or reflect first
6
Graphs Reflect first and then move to new vertex or translate
7
Other Parent Functions
On your worksheet you saw a log function that you didn’t know anything about Was it any different than the parabola What do you think the equation would look like for a square root to transform it Cubic? Absolute Value? Cube Root?
