quadratic functions has a minimum point?
maximum point?

d. Take a closer look at the minimum point or the
maximum point and try to relate it with the values
of h and k in the equation y = a(x – h)2 + k of the
function. Write your observations.

e. Can you identify the domain and range of


the functions?
Let’s summarize!

The graph of Quadratic Function (parabola) opens


either upward or downward.

If the value of a > 0, then the parabola opens


upward and the minimum point is defined but
if a < 0, the parabola opens downward and the
maximum point is defined.

It has a turning point called vertex which is either


the lowest point or the highest point in the graph.
Let’s summarize!

There’s a line called the axis of symmetry which


divides the graph into two parts such that one-half
of the graph is a reflection of the other half.

If a quadratic function is expressed in the form


y = a(x – h)2 + k, the vertex is the point (h,k)

The line x = h or x = -b/2a is the axis of symmetry


and k is the minimum or maximum value of the
function.
Let’s summarize!

The domain of Quadratic Function is the set of all


real numbers.

The range depends on whether the parabola opens


upward or downward. If it opens upward, the range
is the set {y: y > k}. If it opens downward, then the
range is the set {y: y < k}

Tech Time!
Through the use of the
technology, we can graph
Quadratic Functions easily.
To check your answers, we
will use GeoGebra.
Let’s Apply!
Open your textbook on page
84 and answer the items
14 – 16 and 22 – 31 orally.
Let’s Generalize!
Answer the following questions:
1. Does the use of technology in
graphing functions important? Why
and why not?

2. Without the aid of GeoGebra, how


would you graph a Quadratic function
manually?
Let’s Evaluate!
Activity: At Your Own Pace

On your textbook (exercises on page 85 –


86), graph as many quadratic function as you
can within 15 minutes. The students who has
the most number of correct graphs will
receive a prize.
