A parabola is a curved line with particular characteristics. Any point on the curve is the same distance from a fixed point and a fixed straight line. The result looks like half of an ellipse or the ...

The minimum point is the minimum y value that the parabola reaches. The maximum point is the maximum y value that the parabola reaches. The symmetry of the parabola is created because each x value is ...

Quadratic graph lines are U- or Ո-shaped, which is called a parabola. A linear graph can be drawn using only three points. A quadratic graph is a curve, so more points are plotted to support accuracy.
