Most likely you have an equation of a parabola. The vertex of a parabola is the location where it changes from going down, to going up (a simplified explanation). Most parabolas that we think of are oriented up or down (the axis is parallel to the y axis), but they could be oriented sideways, or even at an angle.

To calculate the vertex of a parabola ususally means to find the coordinates of the vertex.
