Absolute value functions and transformations.notebook October 14, 2014 Vocabulary · The function f(x) = |x| is an absolute value function. . The highest or lowest point on the graph of an absolute value function is called the vertex. 1 . An axis of symmetry of the graph of a function is a vertical line that divides the graph into mirror images. An absolute value graph has one axis of symmetry that passes through the vertex.
