This comprehensive unit investigates transformations of quadratics, having learners follow "Optima" through the development and growth of her quilting business. Deftly weaving the story into the mathematical mechanics, the unit gives...

This straightforward worksheet provides learners with valuable practice in identifying different symmetries of functions.  Brief, but thorough explication at the front of the worksheet guides and reminds learners of the techniques...

Your algebra 2 learners show what they can do in this assessment activity on shifting, reflecting, and stretching graphs. Given the graphs of various functions, they write the represented equation.

Learners rewrite a general quadratic function by completing the square to see a new form of the function that more easily identifies the x-coordinate of the vertex and the two roots of the function.

Comparing the movement of graphs geometrically when small changes are made to the parent function motivates this collaborative discussion on the transformations of functions to their various forms. Vertical and horizontal shifts due to...

Your transformers will create and analyze graphs to discover which operations produce which transformations. Linear and exponential functions are used to model the transformations.

Using a data collection device to collect data regarding a bouncing ball, students use various features on graphing calculators to experiment with the parameters of the vertex form of the parabola and their effect on the shape of the...

High schoolers analyze the vertex form of a parabola and find an approximate fit of a model. They explain the quadratic parabola function and its properties by developing quadratic models. They use translation and dilation to change the...
