Different forms of a quadratic function can be easier to use
than others. Each form has its own advantages, depending on
the kind of information that's needed for a given purpose.
• Design a chart, flow chart, mind map, or some other
visual to help you organize the information that can
easily be determined about the graph of a parabola
when the function is written in vertex form, standard
form, and factored form.
• Post your visual to the discussion board for other
students.
