Lesson Plan: Radical Functions Mathematics
This lesson plan includes the objectives, prerequisites, and exclusions of the lesson teaching students how to graph radical functions and then analyze the function’s domain, range, intercepts, end behavior, continuity, and decreasing and increasing intervals.
Objectives
Students will be able to
- graph square and cube root functions,
- identify the domain and range of radical functions,
- analyze the intercepts, end behaviour, symmetry, extrema, and points of inflection of radical functions.
Prerequisites
Students should already be familiar with
- radicals,
- graphing functions using a table of values.
Exclusions
Students will not cover
- radical inequalities.
