What is the vertex form of a quadratic equation?

Back

The vertex form of a quadratic equation is given by y = a(x - h)² + k, where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola.

How do you convert a quadratic equation from standard form to vertex form?

Back

To convert from standard form (y = ax² + bx + c) to vertex form, complete the square.

What is the quadratic formula?

Back

The quadratic formula is x = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac)) / (2a), used to find the solutions of the quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0.

What is a perfect square trinomial?

Back

A perfect square trinomial is a quadratic expression that can be factored into the square of a binomial, such as (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b².
