This example demonstrates the dynamic changes in a family of parabolas. It involves the basic properties of parabolas, such as the vertex, focus, and directrix. By adjusting parameters h, k, a, and c, the shape and position of the parabolas can be observed. The example uses GeoGebra functions to construct parabolas and demonstrates how parameter changes affect the parabolas through slider animations. Suitable for high school mathematics education and learning.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Numeric h(0)
  2. Numeric k(0)
  3. Numeric a(1)
  4. y = (a * (x - h)^(2)) + k
  5. (h, k)
  6. 1 / ((4 * a))
  7. V + (0, fl)
