The document discusses quadratic functions and how their graphs can be obtained through translations of the basic quadratic function y=x^2. It provides examples of shifting and stretching this parent function vertically and horizontally based on changes to the a, h, and k values. Several problems are included for readers to practice graphing various quadratic functions and identifying the vertex, axis of symmetry, minimum/maximum values, and domains and ranges. Optimization word problems involving maximizing areas within given perimeters are also presented.

Translations
Section 4.1 – Quadratic Functions and
Translations
In the Solve It, you used a parabolic shape of the
horse’s jump. A parabola is the graph of a
quadratic function, which you can write in the
form y = ax2 + bx + c, where a cannot be 0.

Essential Understanding
The graph of ANY quadratic function is a
transformation of the graph of the parent
quadratic function y = x2.
Section 4.1 – Quadratic Functions and
Translations
The vertex form of a quadratic function is
f(x) = a(x – h)2 + k, where a cannot be 0.

The axis of symmetry is a line that divides the


parabola into two mirror images. The equation of
the axis of symmetry is x = h. The vertex of the
parabola is (h, k) the intersection of the parabola
and its axis of symmetry.

Problem 1:
What is the graph of f(x) = -1/3x2
Section 4.1 – Quadratic Functions and
Translations
Graphs of y = ax2 and y = -ax2 are reflections of
each other across the x-axis.

Increasing |a| stretches the graph vertically and


narrows it horizontally. Decreasing |a|
compresses the graph vertically and widens it
horizontally.

Section 4.1 – Quadratic Functions and
Translations
The vertex form, f(x) = a(x – h)2 + k,
gives you information about the graph of f without
drawing the graph.

If a > 0, k is the minimum value of the function.

If a < 0, k is the maximum value.

You can use the vertex of a quadratic function,
f(x) = a(x – h)2 + k, to transform the graph of the
parent function f(x) = x2.
• Stretch or compress the graph of f(x) = x2
vertically by a factor of |a|
•If a < 0, reflect the graph across the x-axis
•Shift the graph |h| units horizontally and |k| units
vertically
