use translations, reflections, and dilations to write rules and graph new functions from parent functions.
combine two functions using the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
analyze graphs of polynomial functions using the zeros, local maxima and minima, and end behavior.
identify rational functions given the equation or a graph.
find horizontal and vertical asymptotes of rational functions.
graph exponential functions.
recognize and graph logarithmic functions with any base.
use exponential growth and decay functions to model and solve real-life problems.
solve real-life problems involving right triangles.
add, subtract, multiply, and find the magnitude of the vector algebraically.
use angles to model and solve real-life problems involving arc length, areas of sectors, linear speed, and angular speed.
use the unit circle to graph the sine and cosine function identifying their domains and ranges.
use trigonometric functions to model and solve real-life problems.
write a trigonometric equation in the form of an inverse relation.
multiply and divide complex numbers written in polar form.
