A quadratic graph is produced when you have an equation of the form \(y = ax^2 + bx + c\), where \(b\) and \(c\) can be zero but \(a\) cannot be zero. All quadratic graphs have a line of symmetry.

Plotting a graph takes time. Often mathematicians just want to know the key features. These are: shape, location and some key points (such as where the graph crosses the axes or turning points).
