Put an equation of a parabola on the board (for example y = -2(x + 3)
– 10)
and proceeds to ask questions about it: like:
(1) What information can we get from this equation?
[vertex, direction of opening, step pattern]
(2) If we know the vertex, direction of opening, step pattern, what can
we determine?
[a graph of the parabola, axis of symmetry, optimal value]
(3) What are the x-intercepts (zeroes) of the parabola?
[can’t find them, not enough info]
(4) How could you find the zeroes?
[Use the information and graph the parabola to locate zeroes]
At this point allude to how nice it would be if there was an equation that
would show you the zeroes as quickly as the Vertex Form shows you the
vertex.
Action!
Pairs → Investigate
Complete the first page of BLM3.5.1 with the students.
Students continue to investigate the parabola properties from BLM 3.5.1
using TI-83 graphing calculator if so desired
