What else can I help you with?
Can a parabola shape be in any direction?
Yes, but a parabola, itself, can have only a vertical line of symmetry.
A parabola has an axis of symmetry.?
Yes, it does.
What do you notice the shape of the graph x of the quadratic function yax2?
The shape of the graph of the quadratic function ( y = ax^2 ) is a parabola. If the coefficient ( a ) is positive, the parabola opens upwards, while if ( a ) is negative, it opens downwards. The vertex of the parabola is its highest or lowest point, depending on the direction it opens. The axis of symmetry is the vertical line that passes through the vertex, dividing the parabola into two mirror-image halves.
When a quadratic function is graphed what is the name of the shape formed?
When a quadratic function is graphed, the shape formed is called a parabola. This U-shaped curve can open either upwards or downwards, depending on the coefficient of the quadratic term. The vertex of the parabola represents the highest or lowest point of the graph, and the axis of symmetry is a vertical line that divides the parabola into two mirror-image halves.
What line divides the parabola where one point on one side of the parabola and the corresponding point on the other side?
the axis of symmetry
Where is the line of symmety located on a parabola?
The line of symmetry located on a parabola is right down the center. A parabola is a U shape. Depending on the direction of the parabola it either has a x axis of symmetry or y axis of symmetry. You should have two equal sides of the parabola.
Can a parabola shape be in any direction?
Yes, but a parabola, itself, can have only a vertical line of symmetry.
Which point of parabola is on the axis of symmetry?
Its extremum is on its axis of symmetry.
A parabola has an axis of symmetry.?
Yes, it does.

Where is the axis of symmetry of a parabola located?
Parallel to the y-axis, going through the highest/lowest point of the parabola (if the parabola is negative/positive, respectively).
When a quadratic function is graphed what is the name of the shape formed?
When a quadratic function is graphed, the shape formed is called a parabola. This U-shaped curve can open either upwards or downwards, depending on the coefficient of the quadratic term. The vertex of the parabola represents the highest or lowest point of the graph, and the axis of symmetry is a vertical line that divides the parabola into two mirror-image halves.
Can a figure have line symmetry and not rotational symmetry?
Yes. An ellipse (oval) has two lines of symmetry, but not a rotational symmetry. A parabola has one line and no rotation.
What is the line of symmetry for the parabola whose equation is y -x2 x 3?
Did you mean a parabola with equation y=3x^2? The line of symmetry is x=0 or the y-axis.
Parts of a parabola?
There's the vertex (turning point), axis of symmetry, the roots, the maximum or minimum, and of course the parabola which is the curve.
What line divides the parabola where one point on one side of the parabola and the corresponding point on the other side?
the axis of symmetry
What is the axis of symmetry for the parabola with vertex (-2 -4) and directrix y 1?
The axis of symmetry is x = -2.
