Essential Question Essential Vocabulary How do you graph quadratic functions? Essential Vocabulary Quadratic Function Vertex Extreme Value Standard Form Vertex Form
Quadratic Functions Standard Form: y = ax2 + bx + c What is the graph of a quadratic function? What is the vertex? The axis of symmetry? The vertex and symmetry are important parts of the graph of a quadratic function.
Graphs of Quadratics Graphing quadratics from standard form… Identify axis of symmetry: x = – b_ 2a Identify vertex using axis of symmetry Find a point on parabola and use symmetry to find another point (i.e., y-intercept) Examples…
