For a quadratic equation of the form \(y = k{(x ... point If k < 0, the vertex is a maximum turning point We can identify these properties from a quadratics graph or equation.

Because it's not a math program, Microsoft Word cannot produce a graph from data you input, but with its large array of drawing tools, you can draw a parabola once you've calculated its shape.

The most important part of a parabola is the vertex — its highest or lowest point — and there are many mathematical techniques for finding it. You can try vertex form, or the axis of symmetry, or even ...

A quadratic graph is produced when you have an equation of the form \(y = ax^2 + bx + c\), where \(b\) and \(c\) can be zero but \(a\) cannot be zero. All quadratic graphs have a line of symmetry.
