Quadratic function in vertex form: y=a(x−p)2+q
- Lesson: 111:39
Quadratic function in vertex form: y=a(x−p)2+q
Besides the general form, the vertex form is also another way to express a quadratic function. In this lesson, we will talk about how to find the x-intercepts, y-intercepts, vertex of quadratic functions in vertex form.
Basic Concepts: Graphing linear functions using table of values, Graphing linear functions using x- and y-intercepts, Graphing linear functions using various forms, Introduction to quadratic functions
Related Concepts: Solving quadratic equations by completing the square, Radian measure and arc length, System of linear-quadratic equations, System of quadratic-quadratic equations
