Note:The graph of a linear function is a straight line
while the graph of a quadratic function is a smooth
curve. This smooth curve is called parabola.

Problems Involving Maximum and
Minimum Points
Example:
1. What are the dimensions of the largest rectangular
pen that a framer can enclose with 64 m of fence?
2. What is the minimum product of two numbers that
differ by 5? What are the numbers?
