• Where the parabola touches or intersects the y-axis

Define Zero

• Where the parabola touches or intersects the x- axis, also called the x-intercept

• A line that divides the graph into two equal parts. i.e. cuts the graph in half

• The highest or lowest point on the graph

• Where the parabola touches or intersects the y-axis

Define Maximum

• The highest or lowest point on the graph

• The highest y-value on the graph
