GeoGebra Commands & Parameters
Numeric a(0.0)Numeric b(0.0)Numeric c(-0.0040)y = a * x^(2) + b * x + c(-b) / (2 * a)(e, a * e^(2) + b * e + c)
AI Drawing Prompt Reference
Draw a parabola in a coordinate system to represent a basketball shot trajectory. The parabola is defined by the quadratic function y = a*x^2 + b*x + c. Calculate the vertex coordinates and label them. Add a point for the shooting location and show the intersection points with the horizontal line. Ensure the graph is clear, highlighting the shape and key point relationships.
