Sections in Functions and graphs

The Parabola: y = a(x + p)² + q

The Parabola: y = a(x + p)² + q The parabola is one of the most important curves in mathematics. It describes the path of a projectile, the shape of satellite dishes, and many real-world phenomena.…

The Hyperbola: y = a/(x + p) + q

The Hyperbola: y = a/(x + p) + q The hyperbola is a curve made up of two separate branches that never touch. You encounter hyperbolas in real-world situations such as the relationship between speed…

The Exponential Function: y = a·b^(x+p) + q

The Exponential Function: y = a·b^(x + p) + q Exponential functions model situations where quantities increase or decrease by a constant factor, such as population growth, radioactive decay, and…

Average Gradient of a Curve

Average Gradient of a Curve The gradient of a straight line is constant, but a curve has a gradient that changes from point to point. To measure the steepness of a curve between two points, you…

Trigonometric Functions and Their Graphs

Trigonometric Functions and Their Graphs Trigonometric functions describe periodic behaviour: patterns that repeat at regular intervals. From the motion of a pendulum to sound waves and seasonal…
