1. Find x intercepts
2. Set them to Zero using Zero Product Property.
3. Find the factored quantities.
4. Insert your x coordinate from the height into your factored quantities. Both should equal the same number.
5. The number obtained after subtracting is the GCF that needs to be outside of the two quantities.

ALGEBRA: 8.2.4 Worksheet - Graphing Parabolas
To help in mastering this concept, please complete the problems found on THIS LINK.
HINT: To find the VERTEX, find the LINE OF SYMMETRY (the exact 1/2 way point on the x-axis) in the parabola. Insert that x axis point into your original equation and you will find the y. This y becomes your vertex point!
NO GRAPHING CALCULATOR!
