General Form Completing the square:

f (x )=ax 2+bx +c (x)=a(x +p )2+q

where a, b, and care constants and a0. (i) the value ofx, x = p

*Note that the highest power of an unknown of a(ii) min./max. value = q(iii) min./max. point = (p, q)

Gradients of tangents, Equation of tangent and Normal

If A(x1,y1) is a point on a liney = f(x), the gradient

of the line (for a straight line) or the gradient of the

tangent of the line (for a curve) is the value ofdy

dx

when x = x1.

Gradient of tangent at A( x1, y1):
