What are some of the characteristics of a parabola

The video tutorial covers graphing equations in slope-intercept and standard forms, focusing on the transition to graphing quadratics, which form parabolas. It explains the characteristics of parabolas, such as the vertex and axis of symmetry, and provides a step-by-step guide to graphing them by identifying the axis of symmetry and vertex, and using these to plot the parabola.
