Quadratics

Quadratics

1. Parabola- A special curve, shaped like an arch

   • Zeros Of The Function- where the parabola crosses the x-axis

2. Axis of Symmetry- The vertical line that divides the parabola into two congruent halves.

3. X-Intercepts- The roots of the parabola

4. Minimum- the y-coordinate of the vertex of a parabola that opens up

5. Maximum- the y-coordinate of the vertex of a parabola that opens down

6. Vertex-The point where the parabola crosses it's axis of symmetry

7. Y-Intercepts- the point where the function crosses the y-axis

8. Roots Of The Equation- the x-intercepts

9. End Behavior- The behavior of the graph as 'x' approaches positive or negative infinity

10. Discriminant- Tells the "nature" of the roots

11. Difference Of Squares- Subtracting a squared number by another squared number

12. Perfect square trinomial- squaring a binomial

13. Factors Of A Quadratic- what you multiply to get the quadratic
