Types Of Functions: Exploring Quadratic Functions
Heinrich Oswald and StudyBoosterAI
Dive into the world of quadratic functions, learning about their structure represented as f(x)=ax²+bx+c. Illustrate how to identify key features such as the vertex and axis of symmetry, and discuss real-life examples like projectile motion. Create an engaging task where students design a simple projectile scenario, calculate the quadratic function for it, and graph the results. Encourage them to reflect on the importance of the U-shape in predicting outcomes.
