Graph Translations: g(x) = f(x - q) + p

Instructions
1) Drag points p and q to change the parameters & examine the transformation of y = f(x) to g(x).
2) Navigate to trigonometric graphs by clicking on the 'Link to Trigonometric' button at the bottom right.
Notes
a) Dragging p & q to the left will make them negative.
b) The angle measurement x for the trigonometric functions is given in radians, not degrees.
