This example demonstrates quadratic functions in vertex form and their translations. Key mathematical concepts include quadratic functions and transformations. By adjusting parameters k and h, the vertex of the quadratic function's graph can be observed to shift. The GeoGebra objects mentioned in the construction summary include k, h, f, etc., involving the drawing of function graphs. Suitable for high school mathematics education and learning about the properties of quadratic functions.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Numeric k(0.0)
  2. Numeric h(0.0)
  3. f(x) = x^(2)
  4. basic: y = f(x)
  5. vert: y = f(x) + k
  6. hori: y = f(x - h)
