In this second part of the Quadratics unit, we will look at a couple of things.
Writing and graphing equations in vertex form.
Identifying the transformations of a quadratic
Use of quadratics in figuring projectile motion
Comparing different quadratic models
and
Looking at nonlinear systems of equations and inequalities.
The first thing we will look at is rewriting from standard form to vertex form. We will also look at rewriting from vertex form to standard form but we don't use that particular operation often. It is a good activity to help see the relation ship between the two forms.
Below is a short video to help explain the process in case you have any questions about what we covered in class.
