👉 Learn about graphing absolute value equations. An absolute value equation is an equation having the absolute value sign and the value of the equation is always positive. The graph of the parent function of an absolute value equation is a v-shaped graph starting from the origin above the x-axis and rising both sides of the y-axis and is symmetrical to the y-axis.

To graph an absolute value equation, we first graph the parent function of the absolute value equation and we then apply the necessary transformation(s) to the graph of the parent function to obtain the required graph of the absolute value equation.
