How does the equation of a function reflect translations? Scholars manipulate the starting point of the parent square root function before determining the new equations that result from the translations. Class members also determine the changes to the domain of the function.

Instructional Ideas

• Make the connection between translating general functions

Classroom Considerations

• A better alignment might be HSF-IF.7.b
• Requires signing up for a free account to access the CK-12 interactive

Pros

• Allows the individual to view the correct answer if the initial response is incorrect
• The additional reference makes the connections to translating a geometric figure

Cons

• The interactive uses the square root function while the additional information is about trigonometric functions
