Algebra II 5-3 Reteaching Worksheet

This document discusses quadratic functions and their transformations from the parent function y=x^2. It defines the vertex form of a quadratic function as y=a(x-h)^2+k, where (h,k) are the vertex coordinates. Translations move the graph along the x- or y-axis, while stretches or compressions change the shape depending on whether a is greater than, less than, or equal to 1. Several examples of quadratic functions in vertex form are given, along with identifying their vertices, axes of symmetry, and describing any transformations from the parent function. Exercises are provided to have the reader graph additional quadratic functions.

Quadratic Functions and Transformations

Parent Quadratic Function


The parent quadratic function is y = x2. Substitute 0 for x in the function to get y = 0. The vertex of the parent quadratic function is (0, 0). A few points near the vertex are:
x y 3 2 1 9 4 1 1 1 2 4 3 9

The graph is symmetrical about the line x = 0. This line is the axis of symmetry.

Vertex Form of a Quadratic Function


The vertex form of a quadratic function is y = a(x ! h)2 + k. The graph of this function is a transformation of the graph of the parent quadratic function y = x2. The vertex of the graph is (h, k). If a = 1, you can graph the function by sliding the graph of the parent function h units along the x-axis and k units along the y-axis.

What is the graph of y = (x + 3)2 + 2? What are the vertex and axis of symmetry of the function? Step 1 Write the function in vertex form: y = 1[x ! (!3)]2 + 2 Step 2 Find the vertex: h = !3, k = 2. The vertex is (!3, 2). Step 3 Find the axis of symmetry. Since the vertex is (!3, 2), the graph is symmetrical about the line x = !3. The axis of symmetry is x = !3. Step 4 Because a = 1, you can graph this function by sliding the graph of the parent function !3 units along the x-axis and 2 units along the y-axis. Plot a few points near the vertex to help you sketch the graph.

Quadratic Functions and Transformations

If a ! 1, the graph is a stretch or compression of the parent function by a factor of | a |. 0<|a|<1 The graph is a vertical compression of the parent function. |a|>1 The graph is a vertical stretch of the parent function

What is the graph of y = 2(x + 3)2 + 2?

Step 1 Write the function in vertex form: y = 2[x ! (!3)]2 + 2 Step 2 The vertex is (!3, 2). Step 3 The axis of symmetry is x = !3. Step 4 Because a = 2, the graph of this function is a vertical stretch by 2 of the parent function. In addition to sliding the graph of the parent function 3 units left and 2 units up, you must change the shape of the graph. Plot a few points near the vertex to help you sketch the graph.
