Term
Definition
parabola   the graph of a quadratic function  
🗑
axis of symmetry   a line through the graph of a parabola that divides the graph into two congruent halves  
🗑
vertex   the point at which the axis of symmetry intersects intersects the parabola  
🗑
quadratic function   a function that contains a quadratic term, a linear term, and a constant term  
🗑
maximum value   the greatest possible value a function can reach  
🗑
minimum value   the lowest possible value a function can reach  
🗑
quadratic equations   quadratic functions that are set equal to zero  
🗑
roots   solutions of a quadratic equation  
🗑
FOIL method   method that uses the Distributive Property to help multiply binomials  
🗑
pure imaginary numbers   square roots of negative real numbers  
🗑
complex number   any number that can be written in the form a+bi, where a and b are real imaginary numbers and i is the imaginary unit  
🗑
completing the square   a method that can be used to solve all quadratic equations by using the Square Root Property and manipulating the equation until one side is a perfect square  
🗑
discriminant   the expression b^2-4ac, which is used to determine the number and type of roots of a quadratic equation  
🗑
standard form   ax^2+bx+c=0, where a does not equal zero and a, b, and c are integers  
🗑
zeros   these are used to find the roots of a quadratic equation and are the x-intercepts of the graph of a quadratic equation  
🗑
factored form   0=a(x-p)(x-q), where p and q represent the x-intercepts of a graph of the equation  
🗑
Zero Product Property   for any real numbers a and b, if ab=0, then either a=0, b=0, or both a and b equal zero  
🗑
imaginary unit i   i^2=-1; the number i is the principal square root of -1  
🗑
Square Root Property   a method that is similar to a difference of squares and is used to solve quadratic equations  
🗑
factoring   finding the terms that are multiplied together to get an expression  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
