Answer:

The intercept form gives the x-intercepts, y-intercepts, and concavity of the parabola. Vertex form is most useful when graphing, since finding the vertex is much easier. Finally, standard form helps you find concavity and each a, b, and c terms tell different things about the postition of the parabola. Generally, this form is factored into one of the other forms. Hope this helped!
