What are the ke features of the graphs of quadratic functions? Overall Big Ideas The location and value of a constant within a function affects its graph. Quadratic equations can be written in verte form = a ( h) + k, where the verte of the graph of the equation is at ( hk, ) and the ais of smmetr is the line = h. The value of k determines the graph s vertical translation. The value of h determines the graphs horizontal translation.
