- Vertical & Horizontal Shifts - Moving a function up, down, left, or right is like nudging it around on the coordinate plane. Add a constant to f(x) for vertical moves, or tweak the input x for horizontal slides - this visual trick helps you predict where your graph lands.

- Reflections Over Axes - Flipping graphs is as fun as looking in a mirror: multiply f(x) by - 1 for a flip over the x-axis, or replace x with - x for a y-axis reflection. Recognizing these flips builds symmetry skills you can flex on any graph. OpenStax: Transformation of Functions OpenStax: Transformation of Functions
- Even & Odd Functions - Even functions mirror perfectly across the y-axis (f( - x)=f(x)), while odd functions spin around the origin (f( - x)= - f(x)). Spotting these patterns makes graphing a breeze and reveals hidden symmetry. OpenStax: Transformation of Functions OpenStax: Transformation of Functions
- Vertical Stretches & Compressions - Multiply f(x) by a number bigger than 1 to stretch it upwards, or by a fraction between 0 and 1 to squash it down. This "gravity tweak" changes how steep or flat your graph looks. OpenStax: Transformation of Functions OpenStax: Transformation of Functions
- Horizontal Stretches & Compressions - Tweak the input x by a constant: values between 0 and 1 stretch your graph outward, while values above 1 squeeze it in. It's like zooming in and out on your function's width. OpenStax: Transformation of Functions OpenStax: Transformation of Functions
