All quadratic functions have the same type of curved graphs with a line of symmetry. The graph of the quadratic function \(y = ax^2 + bx + c \) has a minimum turning point when \(a \textgreater 0 \) ...

As part of a series of electronic professional development experiences for educators, the NASA Explorer Schools project is hosting a 60-minute Web seminar on Sept. 27, 2011, at 8 p.m. EDT. Investigate ...

This video gives you the fastest and easiest method to understand and sketch parabolas—no complex math required. We break it down step-by-step: finding the vertex, identifying the axis of symmetry, ...

In mathematics, a quadratic is a type of problem that deals with a variable multiplied by itself — an operation known as squaring. This language derives from the area of a square being its side length ...

This jingle has helped generations of algebra students recall the quadratic formula that solves every equation of the form $latex ax^2+bx+c=0$. The formula is as ...

Google's latest animated Doodle celebrates the quadratic equation, transforming its homepage into an interactive classroom. This visual tribute highlights the formula's components and solutions, ...

Quadratic graph lines are U- or Ո-shaped, which is called a parabola. A linear graph can be drawn using only three points. A quadratic graph is a curve, so more points are plotted to support accuracy.
