This example demonstrates the connection between the vertex form of a parabola and its graph. It involves core mathematical concepts such as the vertex form equation of a parabola, graph transformations, and the influence of parameters. The construction uses GeoGebra commands/objects: k, h, c, text1, text2, text3, text4, text5, text6, text7, text8, text9, f. It is suitable for high school students learning about the properties of parabolas and the application of their equations.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Numeric k(-1)
  2. Numeric h(-2)
  3. y = (x - h)^(2) + k
  4. x = h
