About this lesson
This video looks at how we can sketch graphs of sine, cosine and tangent functions which have been transformed using horizontal and vertical translations. Forming part of the Year 11 Mathematical Methods (VCE Units 1 and 2) course in Australia, I use a number of examples to show how you can use basic pencil and paper (and CAS!) methods to be able to sketch any trig functions which are dilated, reflected and translated. The examples are explained in an easy to understand way to help you smash maths.
