This presentation provides a clear, step-by-step introduction to Relations and Functions tailored for Grade 8 learners, making it ideal for both classroom teaching and self-study. It covers foundational concepts, practical examples, and engaging visual explanations to help students fully understand the topic.
Inside, you will find:
Definition and Real-Life Applications – Understand what relations and functions are, and see how they appear in everyday situations such as mapping locations, assigning student IDs, or pairing people with phone numbers.
Representations of Relations – Learn to express relations through ordered pairs, tables, mapping diagrams, and graphs.
Domain and Range – Step-by-step guidance on identifying the set of inputs (domain) and the set of outputs (range) in various examples.
Types of Relations – One-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-one, and many-to-many relations explained with diagrams and real-world analogies.
Functions and Non-Functions – Understand the criteria for determining whether a relation is a function, including the vertical line test.
Function Notation and Evaluation – Learn how to use function notation (f(x)) and calculate function values for given inputs.
Graphing Functions – Introduction to plotting functions on the coordinate plane with sample problems and solutions.
Practice Exercises and Quizzes – A variety of problems to test your knowledge, from easy identification tasks to application challenges.
By the end of this presentation, you will be able to:
✔ Differentiate between relations and functions
✔ Identify domain and range in multiple formats
✔ Recognize and classify different types of relations
✔ Use function notation correctly and graph functions with confidence
