1. Graphing Square Root and Cube Root Functions

2. Don’t freak out… YOU learned the basics to graphing last chapter This is just reinforcement!

3. Where we see ‘em…

4. Cube root and square root

5. Parent Square Root

7. X/Y table X ValueY Value 4 9 16 25 36 49 64

8. Parent Cube Root

10. X/Y table X ValueY Value 8 27 64 -8 -27 -64

11. Translations

13. You tell me… What would placing a negative sign in front of the radical do? What would placing a number like 2 in front of the radical do?

14. Practice

15. Ex: Graphing Square Root Functions Graph the parent function of the square root function and the following function on the same graph. Tell what transformation were done to the square root parent function. Graph at least four points on each.

17. Graph the parent function of the square root function and the following function on the same graph. Tell what transformation were done to the square root parent function. Graph at least three points on each. Ex: Graphing Square Root Functions

19. Graph the parent function of the square root function and the following function on the same graph. Tell what transformation were done to the square root parent function. Graph at least four points on each. Ex: Graphing Square Root Functions

21. Graph the parent function of the square root function and the following function on the same graph. Tell what transformation were done to the square root parent function. Graph at least four points on each. Ex: Graphing Square Root Functions

23. Square Roots and nth roots When c≥0, the square root of c is the non negative solution of the equation x 2 =c Cube roots, fourth roots, and higher roots are defined as solutions of the equation x n =c These equations can be solve graphically by finding the x coordinate of the intersection points of y=x n and y=c
