Answer:
a) g(x) = f(x) + 3
So g(x) is a vertical translation of f(x), 3 units upwards
b) g(x) = 3x² - 1 + 3
g(x) = 3x² + 2
The graph has shifted 3 units upwards, so has the vertex.
The vertex of f is (0,-1)
Whereas the vertex of g is (0,2)
-1 + 3 = 2
we can divide the composite shape into on quadrilateral and triangle as shown in the diagram. since the line that joins the two shape is parallel to the base AB, the angle DEC is 85°.The angle CEA is 180°- angle DEC = 180-85=95. Angle BCE is sum of angle CEA, ABC and EAB subtracted from360°= 360°-(95+95+85)=85°. Angle DCE is 120°- ECB=35°. So, angle CDE = 180°-(35°+85°)= 60°. For reference see the diagram.
