Quadratics

Description

The vertex form of this quadratic function makes it straightforward to identify the vertex and determine the parabola's orientation. This form is beneficial for graphing because it provides the vertex coordinates directly, allowing for quick plotting. The coefficient a further aids in visualizing the parabola's opening direction, ensuring an accurate graph. In this example you can see what it takes for a parabola to have a vertex along the y-axis.
