Graphing Quadratics in Polynomial Form (VCE SSCE Mathematical Methods): Flashcards

$y = ax^2 + bx + c$ where $a \neq 0$

$c$ (the constant term)

Substitute $x = 0$ into the equation

Set $y = 0$ and solve for $x$

If $ab = 0$, then $a = 0$ or $b = 0$

$x = \frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}$

Perpendicular bisector

Substitute axis of symmetry x-value into equation

Y-intercept, X-intercepts, Axis of symmetry, Turning point

On the axis of symmetry
