    How to interpret trigonometric functions in transformations?

    An example of a trigonometric function that includes multiple transformations is; f(x) = 3tan(x – 4) + 3
    This is different from the standard function, f(x) = tan x because it has a vertical stretch of 3 units and a horizontal translation to the right by 4 units, and a vertical translation upwards by 3.  
    Another way to look at it is by;
    Let us use the function f(x) = sin x.
    Thus, the new function would be written as;
    g(x) = sin (x – π/2), and this gives us;
    g(x) = sin x cos π/2 – (cos x sin π/2)  = -cos x
    This will make a graph by shifting the graph of sin x π/2 units to the right side.
    Now, shifting the graph of sin xπ/2 units to the left gives;
    h(x) = sin (x + π/2/2)
