Support · Mathematics Advanced 11–12 – Year 11 · Graph transformations
Support Apply reflections, translations and dilations to functions within the scope of the Mathematics Advanced course, excluding trigonometric functions, determine the function rule and the graph of the transformed function, the domain and range of the transformed graph, any intercepts, asymptotes and discontinuities where appropriate, and describe which transformations have been applied
Resources for the prerequisite content of this dot point: earlier-stage (or earlier sub-level) dot points in the same strand that students usually need first. Use these to fill gaps before or alongside the core lesson.
Prerequisite links are draft mappings generated from the syllabus structure (earlier stage, same strand, closest content). They are being reviewed by teachers. Spot a poor match? Tell us.
