how to find the vertex of a quadratic equation

VERTEX Grade OF A QUADRATIC EQUATION

Learning Objectives :

* Vertex form of a quadratic equation.

* If a quadratic equation is given in standard form, how to write information technology in vertex form.

* How to sketch the graph of a quadratic equation that is in vertex course.

Vertex form of a quadratic equation :

y = a(10 - h)2 + k

where (h, chiliad) is the vertex of the parabola.

The h represents the horizontal shift and k represents the vertical shift.

Horizontal Shift :

Shifting the graph of the parent function y = xiito the left or right from 10 = 0.

Vertical Shift :

Shifting the graph of the parent function y = x 2 upwards or down from x = 0.

In the above picture, the graph (Parabola) of the parent part y = x2 is shifted ii units to the right from x = 0 and 1 unit up from y = 0.

So, the vertex is

(Horizontal shift, Vertical shift) = (ii, 1)

Example one :

Write the quadratic equation in vertex form and write its vertex :

y = -xii - 2x - 2

Solution :

Vertex form of the quadratic equation :

y = -x2 - 2x - ii

y = -(102 + 2x) - two

y = -[x2 + 2(x)(1) + 1two - 12] - 2

y = -[(x + one)2 - 12] - two

y = -[(x + 1)ii - 1] - 2

y = -(x + one)ii + 1 - ii

y = -(ten + 1)two - 1

Vertex :

Comparing y = a(x - h) ii  + k and y = -(10 + 1) 2  - i,

h = -1 and k = -1

And then, the vertex is (h, k) = (-i, -one).

Example two :

Write the quadratic equation in vertex course and sketch the graph.

y = -ten2 + 2x + three

Solution :

Vertex class of the quadratic equation :

y = -tentwo + two10 + 3

y = -(xii - 2x) + iii

y = -[x2 - 2(x)(1) + 12 - oneii] + three

y = -[(x - 1)2 - 12] + 3

y = -[(x - 1)2 - i] + iii

y = -(x - 1)ii + ane + iii

y = -(x - 1)2 + 4

Vertex :

Comparingy = a(x - h) 2  + k and y = -(10 - 1) 2  + iv,

h = 1 and k = iv

So, the vertex is (h, chiliad) = (1, 4).

To graph the above quadratic equation, we need to find 10-intercept and y-intercept, if whatsoever.

ten-intercept :

To find the x-intercept, substitute y = 0.

0 = -(x - ane)two + iv

(x - i)two = 4

Take square root on both sides.

x - 1 = ±√4

x - i = ±2

x - 1 = -two  or  x - 1 = 2

x = -1  or  x = 3

So, the ten-intercepts are (-one, 0) and (iii, 0) .

y-intercept :

To find the y-intercept, substitute x = 0.

y = -(0 - ane)2 + 4

y = -(-1)2 + 4

y = -1 + iv

y = 3

And then, the y-intercept is (0, iii).

Comparingy = a(x - h) two  + m and y = -(x - i) two  + 4,

a = -one

So, the parabola opens down with vertex (1, 4), x-intercepts (-1, 0) and (iii, 0) and y-intercept (0, 3).
