Practice Questions

Test your understanding with targeted questions related to the topic.

Question 1

Easy

Find the vertex of the function $$ f(x) = x^2 - 2x + 1 $$.

💡 Hint: Use the vertex formula, identify `a` and `b`.

Question 2

Easy

Determine the vertex of $$ f(x) = 2x^2 + 8x + 6 $$.

💡 Hint: Calculate x first using $$ x = -\\frac{b}{2a} $$. Then find y.

Interactive Quizzes

Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.

Question 1

What is the formula for the x-coordinate of the vertex?

  • $$ x = -\\frac{b}{2a} $$
  • $$ x = \\frac{-b}{2a} $$
  • $$ x = \\frac{2a}{b} $$

💡 Hint: Recall the vertex formula from our earlier discussions.

Question 2

True or False: The vertex can only be a minimum point of a parabola when a is positive.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Think about how the direction of the parabola affects the vertex's role.
