Quadratic function (parabola) is any function that can be written in the form f(x)= ax + bx + c, where a ≠ 0.

Using Zeros to Find the VertexIn Chapter 9 you learned how to find the zeros of quadratic
functions by factoring (GCF, Difference of 2 Squares, Perfect-Square Trinomial, Guess-and-Check Trinomial). For example, the zeros of the quadratic function y = x2 – 14x + 40 are 4 and 10. A parabola is symmetric. One half of the parabola is the mirror image of the other half. The axis of symmetry passes through a point midway between the zeros. The axis of symmetry below is x = 7. The zeros can be used to find the vertex of the parabola.
