Parabola in a Parallelogram
A parabola is given with the x-coordinate of the minimum point, and two points on the parallelogram shown. The points are joined and then a parallel line is drawn that is a...
How Close
The coordinates of two points on a line are given. The task is to find the shortest distance from the line of a third given point. The task involves finding the equation of...
Find f(2)
The maximum value of a quadratic function is given, together with the value of f(3) and the information that this is equal to f(-1). The challenge is to determine the coefficients of the quadratic. This involves the use of symmetry and solution of a simultaneous equation.
...
Quadratic Segments
The investigation begins by looking at the area of three segments related to a quadratic. The first segment is the area between the curve and the x-axis. Each of the other...
