Trigonometric graphs can be sketched when you know the amplitude, period, phase and maximum and minimum turning points. Learn about graphs of trigonometric functions in this National 5 Maths guide.

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 \(f(x) = x^2\) is the same as the graph of \(y = x^2\).
