Converting Between Different Forms of a Quadratic

Standard form is ax^2 + bx + c.

Vertex form is a(x-h)^2 + k, which reveals the vertex and axis of symmetry.

Factored form is a(x-r)(x-s), which reveals the roots.

If we have a quadratic ax^2 + bx +c with solutions r1 and r2, then we can factor the quadratic as


a(x-r1)(x-r2)
