A trailering assist system includes a control and a camera disposed at a rear portion of a vehicle and having a field of view at least rearward of the vehicle. The control includes an image processor operable to process image data captured by the camera. The control, responsive to image processing of captured image data, transforms captured image data of the trailer hitch from a pivoting orientation of the portion of the trailer that pivots about the trailer hitch to a vertical orientation of the portion of the trailer that moves laterally across the transformed image data. The control transforms pivotal movement of the portion of the trailer about the trailer hitch to lateral movement of the trailer hitch in the transformed image data. The control determines a trailer angle of the trailer relative to the vehicle based on the lateral position of the trailer hitch in the transformed image data.
