1. Identify the vertex. (1, 2)
2. Substitute it to 𝑦 = 𝑎(𝑥 − ℎ)2 +𝑘
𝑦 = 𝑎(𝑥 − 1)2 +2
3. Select any point (ordered pair) from the graph to
solve for the value of a..
And substitute into equation from in step 2.
(0, 3) 𝑦 = 𝑎(𝑥 − 1)2 +2
3 = 𝑎(0 − 1)2 +2
3 = 𝑎(−1)2 +2
3 = 𝑎(1) + 2
3= 𝑎+2
3−2= 𝑎
𝑎=1
4. Substitute the value of a in the equation from step 2
to derive the equivalent quadratic equation of the
given graph..
𝑦 = 𝑎(𝑥 − 1)2 +2 𝑦 = 𝑥 2 − 2𝑥 + 1 + 2
𝑦 = 1(𝑥 − 1)2 +2 𝑦 = 𝑥 2 − 2𝑥 + 3
𝑦 = (𝑥 − 1)2 +2

Vertex: (-1, -4) 𝑦 = 𝑎(𝑥 − ℎ)2 +𝑘
𝑦 = 𝑎(𝑥 + 1)2 − 4
(0, -2)
−𝟐 = 𝒂(𝟎 + 𝟏)𝟐 − 𝟒
−𝟐 = 𝒂(𝟏)𝟐 − 𝟒
−𝟐 = 𝒂 − 𝟒
−𝟐 + 𝟒 = 𝒂
𝒂=𝟐
𝒚 = 𝒂(𝒙 + 𝟏)𝟐 − 𝟒
𝒚 = 𝟐(𝒙 + 𝟏)𝟐 − 𝟒
𝒚 = 𝟐(𝒙𝟐 +𝟐𝒙 + 𝟏) − 𝟒
𝒚 = 𝟐𝒙𝟐 + 𝟒𝒙 + 𝟐 − 𝟒
𝒚 = 𝟐𝒙𝟐 + 𝟒𝒙 − 𝟐

Vertex: (0, 3)
𝑦 = 𝑎(𝑥 − ℎ)2 +𝑘
𝑦 = 𝑎(𝑥 − 0)2 + 3
𝑦 = 𝑎𝑥 2 + 3
(1, 2)
𝟐=𝒂 𝟏 𝟐+𝟑
𝟐 = 𝒂+𝟑
𝟐−𝟑=𝒂
𝒂 = −𝟏
𝒚 = 𝒂𝒙𝟐 + 𝟑
𝒚 = −𝟏𝒙𝟐 + 𝟑
𝒚 = −𝒙𝟐 + 𝟑
5
Your Turn!
𝒚 = 𝒙𝟐 + 𝟒𝒙 − 𝟐
6
Your Turn!
𝒚 = 𝟐𝒙𝟐 + 𝟒𝒙 − 𝟑

Derive Quadratic Function from intercepts
Example:
Find a quadratic function whose graph passes through the points (-1, 0) and
(1, 0) and whose vertex is the maximum point of the parabola.
Formula: 𝑓 𝑥 = 𝑎(𝑥 − 𝑟1 )(𝑥 − 𝑟2 ) −1,0 (1, 0)
𝑟1 , 0 (𝑟2 , 0)
𝑓 𝑥 = 𝑎(𝑥 + 1)(𝑥 − 1)
𝑓 𝑥 = 𝑎(𝑥 2 − 1)
𝑓 𝑥 = −(𝑥 2 − 1)
𝑓 𝑥 = −𝑥 2 + 1

Derive Quadratic Function from intercepts
Example 2:
Find a quadratic function whose graph passes through the points (-2, 0) and
(0, 0) and whose vertex is the minimum point of the parabola.
Formula: 𝑓 𝑥 = 𝑎(𝑥 − 𝑟1 )(𝑥 − 𝑟2 ) −2,0 (0, 0)
𝑓 𝑥 = 𝑎(𝑥 + 2)(𝑥)
𝑓 𝑥 = 𝑎(𝑥 2 + 2𝑥)
𝑓 𝑥 = 𝑥 2 + 2𝑥
