Whether in the context of quadratic functions, parabolic mirrors or alternative energy designs like solar cookers, the parabola holds a special place in science and mathematics — particularly geometry ...

The graph below has a turning point (3, -2). Write down the nature of the turning point and the equation of the axis of symmetry. For the parabola \(y=(x+6)(x-4)\) determine the coordinates and nature ...

When asked to solve a quadratic equation, we are really finding the roots – where the parabola cuts the x-axis, therefore when we have the graph drawn, it is very easy to do this. Looking at the graph ...
