Steps for Identifying the Vertex of a Quadratic Equation. To find the vertex of a quadratic function, which is the highest or lowest point on its graph, I follow these systematic steps: Recognize the quadratic equation’s formula, which is $y = ax^2 + bx + c$.
The vertex of the graph of a quadratic function is the highest or lowest possible output for that function. If you’re looking at a graph, the vertex would be the highest or lowest point on the parabola. The easiest way to find the vertex is to use the vertex formula.

To find the vertex of a parabola represented by a quadratic function in f(x)=ax^2+bx+c form: Step 01: Identify the values of the coefficients a and b Step 02: Use the formula for the vertex of a parabola x=-b/2a to find the x-coordinate value of the vertex point.
Check our vertex form calculator if you want to find the vertex of a quadratic function in a standard form. It also comes in handy whenever you try to convert from the vertex form of a parabola to the standard one.
The x-coordinate of the vertex can be found by the formula −b 2a − b 2 a, and to get the y value of the vertex, just substitute −b 2a − b 2 a, into the the equqation as shown in the diagram and example below: It's called 'vertex form' for a reason! The vertex is just (h, k) from the equation.
The vertex form of a quadratic function is given by f (x) = a(x - h) 2 + k, where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola.
When a parabola opens up or down, its equation in the standard form is of the form y = ax 2 + bx + c. Here are the steps to find the vertex (h, k) of such parabolas. The steps are explained with an example where we will find the vertex of the parabola y = 2x 2 - 4x + 1.
