| quadratic equation | An equation containing a single variable of degree 2. General form is ax^2 + bx + c = 0, where x is the variable and a, b, c are constants (a does not equal 0) |
| quadratic parent function | y = x^2 |
| linear parent funtion | y = x |
| vertex | The minimum or maximum value of the quadratic equation. The highest or lowest value of the equation. |
| axis of symmetry | the point of a graph where each point corresponds the opposite point. A mirror image. |
| maximum | The highest value of a quadratic equation |
| parameter | a characteristic of a quadratic equation. |
| range | all the y-values of a function |
| translation | sliding a figure from one point to another |
| congruent | same size and same shape |
| less than | < |
| greater than | > |
| minimum | The lowest value of a quadratic equation. |
| parabola | U-shaped graph formed by the quadratic function. |
