Quadratic Vertex Calculator

Keep quadratic vertex calculator math tidy when a plan, worksheet, or note set needs one quick calculation.

Important Use Notice

Informational calculator only. Verify important outputs independently before legal, tax, medical, engineering, safety-critical, contractual, employment, or compliance use.

Estimate

Enter job values, review the estimate, then use the decision hints before ordering or quoting.

Estimate Results

Enter values to see the result.

Example

1, -6, 5 gives Vertex X 3, Vertex Y -4.

Formula

vertex x = -b / 2a, vertex y = f(vertex x)

Find the x-coordinate of the turning point first, then substitute it into the quadratic.

A cannot be zero for a true quadratic.

Check

Mixing units or scales across a, b, c before calculating vertex x.
Confirm that all inputs use the same unit system expected by the formula.
