What does vertex mean in math class?
A vertex is the highest or lowest point in a parabola.
To find the value of a in a parabola opening up or down, subtract the y-value of the parabola at the vertex from the y-value of the point on the parabola that is one unit to the of the vertex?
right
To find the value of a in a parabola opening left or right subtract the x value of the parabola at the vertex from the x value of the point on the parabola that is one unit the vertex?
Above
If the parabola opens upward the vertex is called the?
maximum point :)
What is the Definition of vertex of a parabola?
the point in which the parabola cannot go any higher or lower in a coordinate plane
What is the lowest or highest point in a parabola?
A vertex is the highest or lowest point in a parabola.
Parabola is the point at which the parabola is at its lowest or highest point?
A parabola is NOT a point, it is the whole curve.
What does vertex mean in math class?
A vertex is the highest or lowest point in a parabola.
What is the highest or lowest point on a graph called?
The vertex is the highest or lowest point on a graph.
What the the vertex of a parabola?
The vertex would be the point where both sides of the parabola meet.
On a parabola the extreme point which is the highest lowest or farthest point left or right is called a...?
The extreme point is called a vertex.
The is the extreme point of a parabola and is located halfway between the focus and directrix?
The vertex -- the closest point on the parabola to the directrix.
Where is the point on the parabola for the maximum area?
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.
What is the point directly above the focus?
The point directly above the focus is the vertex of the parabola. The focus is a specific point on the axis of symmetry of the parabola, and the vertex is the point on the parabola that is closest to the focus.
To find the value of a in a parabola opening up or down subtract the y-value of the parabola at the vertex from the y-value of the point on the parabola that is one unit to the of the vertex?
To find the value of a in a parabola opening up or down subtract the y-value of the parabola at the vertex from the y-value of the point on the parabola that is one unit to the right of the vertex.
What is the extreme point called on a parabola?
The vertex, or maximum, or minimum.
What is the name of the point you use to define a parabola?
All of the points on a parabola define a parabola. However, the vertex is the point in which the y value is only used for one point on the parabola.
