What is the axis of symmetry in a quadratic function?
Back
The axis of symmetry is a vertical line that divides the parabola into two mirror-image halves, given by the equation x = -b/2a.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does it mean to shift a graph vertically?
Back
Shifting a graph vertically means moving it up or down without changing its shape. For example, f(x) = x² + k shifts the graph up if k > 0 and down if k < 0.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does it mean to shift a graph horizontally?
Back
Shifting a graph horizontally means moving it left or right. For example, f(x) = (x - h)² shifts the graph right if h > 0 and left if h < 0.
