application
Let’s Recall! The Properties of the Graph of a
Quadratic Function

b. Give the vertex of the parabola and its
axis of symmetry.
c. Give the domain and range of the
function.
d. What is the y-intercept?
e. At what values of x does the graph
intersect the x- axis?
f. What do you call these x-coordinates
where the curve crosses the x- axis?
g. What is the value of y at these values
of x?
Let’s Extend! The Graph of a Quadratic
Function
Which of the following equations
corresponds to the graph at the left?

y = ( x − 1) − 4
2

y = ( x − 4) + 1

y = x 2 − 2x − 3

A. Finding the Equation of a Quadratic Function
Given the Graph of the Function

When the vertex and any point on the parabola


are clearly seen, the equation of the quadratic
function can easily be determined by using the
form of a quadratic function 𝑦 = 𝑎(𝑥 − ℎ)2 + 𝑘.
A. Finding the Equation of a Quadratic Function
Given the Graph of the Function
STEPS
1. Consider the opening of the parabola. What does it imply?
2. Identify the coordinates of the vertex.
3. Identify coordinates of any point on the parabola.
4. In the form of quadratic function 𝑦 = 𝑎(𝑥 − ℎ)2 + 𝑘, substitute the coordinates of
the point you have taken in the variables x and y and the x-coordinates and y-
coordinate of the vertex in place of h and k, respectively.
5. Solve for the value of a.
6. Get the equation of a quadratic in the form 𝑦 = 𝑎(𝑥 − ℎ)2 + 𝑘 by substituting the
obtained value of a and the x and y coordinates of the vertex in h and k
respectively.

Is it possible to find the equation of a


quadratic function given the zeros of
the function?
B. Finding the Equation of a Quadratic Function
Given the Zeros of the Function

If r1 and r2 are the zeros of a quadratic function


then f(x) = a(x – r1) (x – r2) where a is a nonzero
constant that can be determined from other point
on the graph. Also, you can use the sum and
product of the zeros to find the equation of the
quadratic function.

Given the Zeros of the Function

Example 1 Find a quadratic function whose zeros are -1


and 3.
f(x) = a(x – r1) (x – r2)
f(x) = a(x – (-1)) (x – 3)
f(x) = a(x + 1) (x – 3)

f(x) = a (𝑥 2 −2𝑥 − 3) where a is a nonzero


constant
