Vedaniti, Lear UNE Online Function Transformation Functions and Transformations A function f from domain X to domain Y is represented as f: X -. Y. A function is defined as a map that maps each element in the domain to exactly one element in the codomain. Euler was the first to use modern representation f(x)( read * f of x) to determine the value return by a function given by an argument x. Suppose the function f maps x € Y to y € Y. Then we can express it as y = f(x) Here, we will look at some of the important concerts related to function and transformation of functions. Most probably, you must have encountered each of their terms earlier, but here we will merge the concepts together. Transformationof Function In Mathematics, a transformation of a function is a function that turns one function or graph into another, usually related function or graph. For example, translating a quadratic graph (parabola) will move the axis of symmetry and vertex but the overall shape of the parabola stays the same. There are four types of transformation namely rotation reflection, dilation, and translation In this article, we will discuss how to do transformation of a function, function graph transformation, and how to graph transformation function. TransformationStatementFunction In Mathematics, transformation statement function is a function f that maps set A to itself i.e, f : A4A. Transformation in other areas of Mathematics simply refers to any function, regardless of domain and codomain. Transformation can be an invertible function from set A to itself, or from set A to another set B. The alternatives of the term transformation may simply imply that the geometric features of functions are considered (for example in terms to variants). Vedaniti, Lear UNE Online Typesof Transformation The four types of transformation of function are : Rotation Transformation- Rotation Transformation rotates or turns the curve around an axis without changing the size and shape of an object. ReflectionTransformation- Reflection Transformation flips the object across a line by keeping it size or shape constant. Dilation Transformation- Dilation transformation enlarges or shortens the object by keeping its shape or orientation the same. This is known as resizing. Translation Transformation- Translation transformation slides or moves the object in the space by keeping its size and orientation the same. Function Graph Transformation Function graph transformation is a process through which a graphed equation or existing graph is modified to obtain the variation of the preceding graph. Function graph transformation is an usual kind of problem in algebra, specifically the modification of algebraic equations. Sometimes graphs are stretched, rotated, translated, or moved about the xy plane. Many issues arise in the form of stretching the function f(x) by c units, shifting the function f(x) by c units, or rotating the function f(x) by x units about x- axis,y- axis, or z-axis. In each of these situations, transformation affects the basic function in certain ways that can be calculated How to Graph Transformation? Function transformations are mathematical operations that cause change in the shape of a graph. When a graph of a function is changed in appearance or location, we call it a transformation. Here, we will discuss how to graph transformations. Vertical Transformation The first transformation is vertical transformation. This type of transformation shifts the graph up or down relative to the parent graph. The graph will shift up if we add positive constant to each y- coordinate whereas the graph will shift down if we add negative constant. Lear UNE Online HorizontalTransformation This type of transformation shifts the left or right relative to the parent graph. This takes place when we add or subtract coordinates from the x- axis before the function is applied . Reflection A reflection is a transformation in which a mirror image is obtained about an x-axis. The graph of a function is reflected about the x-axis if each coordinate of y-axis is multiplied by -1 Whereas the graph of a function is reflected about the y-axis if each coordinate of x-axis is multiplied by -1 proper applying the function. Dilation Functions that are multiplied by a real number apart from 1, depending upon the real number, appear to vertically or horizontally stretch. This form of non rigid transformation is known as dilation. How to Do Transformationsof Functions? Here are the rules on how to do transformation of function that can be used to graph a function. Quadratic Function Transformation Transformation rules can be applied to graphs of function. Here is the graph of function that represents the transformation of reflection. The red curve represents the graph of function f(x) = x®. The transformation g(x) = -x° is completed and it obtains the reflection of f(x)about the x - axis. Imagewillbeuploadedsoon Lear UNE Online Now lets us learn the transformation of translation The red curve represents the graph of function f(x) = x2. The quadratic function transformation f(x) = (x + 2)? will shift the parabola 2 steps to the right side. Imagewillbeuploadedsoon Now lets us learn the transformation of rotation *Torotate the graph 90°: (x,y) —(y, x) *Torotate the graph 180% (x, y) +(x, -y) *Torotate the graph 270°: (x,y) —(y,-x) Here, we can observe that the preimage is rotated to 180°.

Hence, the transformation here is translation 2 units down. f(x) + f(x - 2) The x- coordinates encounter the change by 2 units. Hence, the transformation here is translation 2 units right. 2. If We Have the Graph of y = x?, then How Will the Graph of y = x? - 6x + 9 Be Obtained? Solution: Lear UNE Online Let f(x) = x? Completing the square on y = x*- 3x +9, we get (x- 3)? + 6. We identify this as f(x - 2)+ 3. Therefore to obtain the graph of y = x? - 3x + 9, we need to shift it to the right by 3 and then shift it up by 6. 3. How is the Graph of y= (x - 4)- 5 Relatedto the Graph of y = f(x)? Solution: When the graph of y = f(x)is moved right by 4 units, we gety = f(x-4) When the graph of y = f(x -4)is moved down by 5 units, we get y= (x-4)-5. Hence, the graph of y= (x - 4)- 5 is located 4 units right, 5 units down of the graph of y = f(x). Hence, the point (x, y) moves to( x +4, y-5).
