In graphing, what is a 'turn'?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what you flip the shape to another quadrant

OpenStudy (s3a):

@INeeDhElp1., so, "turn" is another way of saying "rotation"?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, it isn't a rotation.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no rotation would be a flip so let me correct that it could be 30 , 50, 90 degrees etc

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It isn't either of those. I probably should have clarified. There are only two options to this (since I know one of them is right): When the line of the graph touches the x-axis and goes back the direction it came, or when the line of the graph just turns back around whether it's on the x-axis or not (so one of the humps). If that makes sense.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A turn is a rotation, not a flip, nor a reflection in any quadrants. It's just a rotation.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its the second answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Also, a flip is a reflection. (like you're flipping the shape over or reflecting it over an imaginary line.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, so it's just when there's a turn in the direction that the graph's line is going, whether it's just a touch to the x-axis or not?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah pretty much, its hard to explain in words if i had paper i could show you alottt easier lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ahah, it's fine, I just have a quiz including this next period and I wanted to make sure I had it right. Thank you!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And sorry for making it kind of confusing.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nah its fine i understand i do it to sometimes lol no worries i got it once you explained it
