FORMS OF QUADRATIC FUNCTION
LESSON AND THEIR GRAPH
In this lesson, you need to revisit your knowledge and skills on
identifying the values of a, h and k in the quadratic function written in the
form y= a (𝒙 − 𝒉)𝟐 + k and to sketch its graph. Your goal in this module
is to see the effects of changing the values of a, h, and k in the equation
y= a (𝑥 − ℎ)2 + k of a quadratic function on its graph. You may use
graphing tools in order to have a clearer view and a more convenient way
of describing the trend/behavior of the graph like desmos app.
Analyzes the effects of changing the values of a, h, and k
in the equation y= a (𝑥 − ℎ)2 + k of a quadratic function
on its graph.
𝑎 𝑖𝑓 𝑎 < 0
Absolute Value –any real number |a| = { }
𝑎 𝑖𝑓 𝑎 ≥ 0
Trend/ behavior of the graph – the effects of changing the values of a, h, and k in
the quadratic function y = a(𝑥 − ℎ)2 + 𝑘 on its graph.
DESMOS – an electronic application that has a graphing feature.
VERTEX – is the point (h,k) in the quadratic function 𝑦 = 𝑎(𝑥 − ℎ)2 + 𝑘.
Axis of symmetry- the vertical line through the vertex that divides the parabola into
two equal parts.
Reference function/ graph- a guide function/graph use to compare from other
function/ graph.

Forms of quadratic functions
The Graph of 𝒇(𝒙) = 𝒂𝒙𝟐
The value of 𝑎 in 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑎𝑥 2 has an effects on the graph of a quadratic
function. It determines the width of the parabola with respect to the axis of symmetry.
As the value of 𝑎 decreases, the graph is wider and tends to flatten out while as 𝑎
increases, the graph is narrower and steeper.
Consider the functions and f(x) = 𝑥 2 as reference function.
