What do you call the graph of a quadratic equation?

A PARABOLA. If the coefficient of 'x^(2)' is positive (+), then the parabola is 'bowl' shaped. If the coefficient os 'x^(2)' is negative (-), then the parabola is 'umbrella' shaped. This shape of parabola has the general eq'n of y = (+/-) ax^(2( + bx + c For a parabola lying on its side ; open side to the right, then the general eq'n is ; y^(2) = 4ax.
