Dilations of functions
This worksheet provides challenging exercises on dilations of functions, focusing on vertical and horizontal stretching and compressing. Teachers can use it to reinforce students' understanding of function transformations by having them apply dilation factors and interpret their effects graphically. Ideal for precalculus classes, it supports mastery of complex function manipulation and prepares students for advanced math topics.
Learning objectives
- Identify and describe the effects of vertical and horizontal dilations on the graph of a function
- Apply dilation transformations to given functions and sketch the resulting graphs accurately
- Analyze and compare the impact of different dilation factors on function behavior and graph shape
