Grade 11 Math 1 Ch-3 (Notes)
Chapter 3: Elementary Functions and Transformations In Grade 10, students learned basic functions such as linear, quadratic, absolute value, square root, and rational functions. Chapter 3 extends these ideas by introducing more elementary functions and studying how their graphs can be transformed. ( Education for Myanmar ) 3.1 Elementary Functions An elementary function is a basic function whose graph is used as a foundation for studying more complicated functions. 1. Constant Function Function: Characteristics Graph is a horizontal line. Domain: All real numbers. Range: {1} Graph Features Parallel to the x-axis. Every point has y-coordinate 1. 2. Identity Function Function: Characteristics Straight line through the origin. Gradient (slope) = 1. Domain and Range Domain: ℝ Range: ℝ Graph Features Makes an angle of 45° with the positive x-axis. 3. Square Root Function Function: Characteristics Defined only for x ≥ 0. Domain x ≥ 0 Range y ≥ 0 Graph Features Begins at the origin. In...
