Front

What is the standard form of a quadratic equation?

Back

y = ax² + bx + c, where a, b, and c are constants.

Front

What does the vertex of a parabola represent?

Back

The highest or lowest point of the parabola, depending on its orientation.

Front

How do you find the axis of symmetry for a parabola?

Back

x = -b/(2a) from the standard form y = ax² + bx + c.

Front

What is the significance of the 'a' value in a quadratic equation?

Back

It determines the direction of the parabola (upward if a > 0, downward if a < 0) and affects the width.

Front

What is an asymptote in a graph?

Back

A line that a graph approaches but never touches or crosses.
