Section 1.7. (Thus every circle is just a few transformations away from the Unit Circle.)
20. Find an equation for the function represented graphically by the top half of the Unit Circle.
Explain how the transformations is Section 1.7 can be used to produce a function whose graph
is either the top or bottom of an arbitrary circle.
21. Find a one-to-one function whose graph is half of a circle. (Hint: Think piecewise.)
