Intro to Quadratic Functions

Define x-intercept

• The highest or lowest point on the graph

• Where the parabola touches or intersects the x-axis

• Where the parabola touches or intersects the y-axis

• A line that divides the graph into two equal parts. i.e. cuts the graph in half

Define Minimum

• The highest y-value on the graph

• Where the parabola touches or intersects the y-axis

Define Vertex

• Where the parabola touches or intersects the x-axis
