1.6 Graphical Transformations
functions that map real numbers to real numbers
Rigid transformations: size and shape are unchanged
(translations, reflections, or any combination of these)
Non-rigid transformations: shape distorted (vertical
and horizontal stretches and shrinks)

Graphing Absolute Value Compositions
Given the graph of y = f(x),
y = f(x)
reflect the portion of the graph below the
x-axis across the x-axis, leaving the
portion above the x-axis unchanged.
y = f( x ) replace the portion of the graph to the left
of the y-axis by a reflection of the portion
to the right of the y-axis across the y-axis,
leaving the portion to the right of the yaxis unchanged. (The result will show
even symmetry)
