Learn how to graph functions using vertical and horizontal shifts, reflections, compressions, and stretches. See examples, definitions, and exercises on transformations of functions.
Learn how to transform functions by moving, stretching, shrinking or reflecting them. Find the rules, examples and steps to graph transformations of different types of functions.
Learn how to describe and graph functions that shift, stretch, compress, and reflect. See the general form of function transformations and how to apply them in order of operations.
We can think graphs of absolute value and quadratic functions as transformations of the parent functions |x| and x². Importantly, we can extend this idea to include transformations of any function whatsoever! This fascinating concept allows us to graph many other types of functions, like square/cube root, exponential and logarithmic functions.
Learn how to graph functions involving multiple algebraic transformations, such as shifts, reflections, and scalings. See the general form of a transformed function and examples of different orders of transformations.

Learn how to perform horizontal and vertical translations on functions and graphs using simple rules and formulas. See examples of how to graph transformed functions and compare them with parent functions.
Learn how to graph functions using vertical and horizontal shifts, reflections, compressions, and stretches. See examples, exercises, and videos on transformations of functions.
One simple kind of transformation involves shifting the entire graph of a function up, down, right, or left. The simplest shift is a vertical shift, moving the graph up or down, because this transformation involves adding a positive or negative constant to the function.
Graph transformations involve performing transformations such as translations and reflections on the graph of a function. In GCSE mathematics you may be asked to sketch a graph after a given transformation, or asked to write down the position of a coordinate after a transformation has been applied.
