Finding the Domain

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet
This Finding the Domain handout also includes:
  • Student Reference
  • Join to access all included materials

Domain to a math teacher makes perfect sense, but it can seem like gibberish to high schoolers. As it is laid out in clear terms, domain is introduced and explained among all types of functions throughout the handout. The first three sections discuss equations, and the last part looks at two graphs and labels the difference between domain and range.
