\(y = x^2 + a\) represents a translation parallel to the \(y\)-axis of the graph of \(y = x^2\). If \(a\) is positive, the graph translates upwards. If \(a\) is negative, the graph translates ...

A translation is a movement of the graph either horizontally parallel to the \(x\)-axis or vertically parallel to the \(y\)-axis. The graph of \(y = f(x)\) where \(f(x) = x^2\) is the same as the ...

Cosine and sine of an angle θ are defined to be the x and y-coordinates of the point P on the unit circle with the property that the line from O to P makes and angle θ with the positve x-axis. cos(θ) ...
