Graphing Quadratic Functions

Students graph quadratic functions and study how the constants in the equations compare to the coordinates of the vertices and the axes of symmetry in the graphs. The first part of the activity focuses on the vertex form, while the second part focuses on the standard form. Both activities include...

Area of Rectangles with Fixed Perimeter

The students will construct several rectangles with different dimensions, all having the same perimeter. The area of each rectangle is then computed and plotted against the width of each rectangle. The students will discover that the area is a quadratic function of the width. They will also dis...
