Vertex
The vertex is either the minimum (very bottom) or maximum (very top) of a parabola.
It is either a maximum or minimum value depending on its downwards shape or its upwards shape
there can be 0, 1, 2, or infinite intercepts for a parabola 0 intercepts occurs when the parabola does not meet the 2nd line 1 occurs when the parabola intersects a line at the vertex 2 occurs when the line does not intersect at the vertex, but still intersects the parabola infinite occurs when there are 2 parabolas, that although they may be written differently, are the same on a graph.
The maximum.
A parabola's maximum or minimum is its vertex.
A parabola opening up has a minimum, while a parabola opening down has a maximum.
The point on the parabola where the maximum area occurs is at the vertex of the parabola. This is because the vertex represents the maximum or minimum point of a parabolic function.
Vertex
When you look at the parabola if it opens downwards then the parabola has a maximum value (because it is the highest point on the graph) if it opens upward then the parabola has a minimum value (because it's the lowest possible point on the graph)
The vertex, or maximum, or minimum.
The vertex is either the minimum (very bottom) or maximum (very top) 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.
Apex.
Standard notation for a quadratic function: y= ax2 + bx + c which forms a parabola, a is positive , minimum value (parabola opens upwards on an x-y graph) a is negative, maximum value (parabola opens downward) See related link.
The vertex of a parabola is the minimum or maximum value of the parabola. To find the maximum/minimum of a parabola complete the square: x² + 4x + 5 = x² + 4x + 4 - 4 + 5 = (x² + 4x + 4) + (-4 + 5) = (x + 2)² + 1 As (x + 2)² is greater than or equal to 0, the minimum value (vertex) occurs when this is zero, ie (x + 2)² = 0 → x + 2 = 0 → x = -2 As (x + 2)² = 0, the minimum value is 0 + 1 = 1. Thus the vertex of the parabola is at (-2, 1).
the vertex, or very bottom point.I can also be called the maximum or minimum.
