Axis of symmetry and vertex
Chapter 9.6 9.7 9.8
Chapter 9.6 9.7 9.8
You will use these skills in .....
You will be able to:
Find the equation of axis of symmetry
Locate the vertex
Use GDC to draw parabola and find axis of symmetry and vertex and intercepts
Prior Knowledge:
graphing
Key Vocabulary:
coordinates, axis of symmetry, vertex, parabola
One way to find the vertex or by completing the square and finding h and k from vertex form
Notes:
Vertex is the coordinate at the lowest point, or turning point of the graph, also at the point of axis of symmetry
Axis of symmetry is the vertical straight line graph that passes through the vertex
Watch video below on AOS and COTS (use questions below to perform this method as practice)
Textbook questions Chapters 9.6, 9.7 & 9.8 (find the axis of symmetry for parabola only (use GDC to check first) and find vertex for each question
Find the vertex only in each question above
