1.6 Shifting, Reflecting and Stretching Graphs How to vertical and horizontal shift To use reflections to graph Sketch a graph
Shifting (up and down) How is y = x2 different from y – k = a(x – h)2 y = a(x – h)2 + k k shifts the graph up or down.
Shifting (right or left) How is y = x2 different from y – k = a(x – h)2 y = a(x – h)2 + k h shifts the graph Left or Right.
Reflecting Over the x axis will change y to – y Over the y axis will change x to - x How does this effect f(x) = x2 + 2
f(x) = x2 + 2 Over the x axis where f(x) becomes – f(x) -f(x) = -(x2 + 2) or –x 2 – 2 (0, 2) (0, - 2)
f(x) = x2 + 2 Over the y axis where f(x) becomes f(- x) f(-x) = ( -x)2 + 2 or f(x) = x 2 + 2 (0, 2) The graph and the equation are the same. What does this show?
Stretching (Nonrigid transformation) Shifting and reflection are rigid transformation; they move the graph without changing its shape. Lets look at the equation f(x) = ax 2
“a” will make the graph fat or skinny What would happen if a=4 in f(x) = ax2? Would the graph become fat or skinny? FAT Skinny
Skinny The values of f(x) become larger as “a” increase. f(x) = 4x2 (- 3, 12) (3, 12) (-1 , 4) (1, 4) (0, 0)
What would make the Graph Fat? Where “a” is 0 < a < 1. (-4, 1) ( 4, 1) (0, 0)
So lets look at the equationy = a(x – h)2 + k h will move the graph Left or Right (must remember (x + 3) means h is – 3) k will move the graph up or down a will stretch the graph fat or skinny
