Quadratic functions are polynomial equations of the form f(x) = ax² + bx + c, with specific characteristics based on the value of 'a'. The document explains how to graph a parabola by determining its vertex, axis of symmetry, and intercepts, as well as how to represent the function in vertex form. Essential steps for graphing include finding the vertex, creating a table of values, and plotting points to connect with a smooth curve.
Introduces quadratic functions as second-degree polynomials. Their standard and vertex forms are defined, and the parabola representing their graph is explained.
Describes how the orientation of a parabola depends on the coefficient 'a'. Also includes concepts of vertex, axis of symmetry, and its implications in graphing.
Outlines the steps to graph a quadratic function in vertex form, including finding the vertex and intercepts, and plotting them to form a smooth curve.
Continues with methods for graphing quadratic functions, including finding the vertex using the x-coordinate formula, creating a value table, and plotting the graph.
