Quadratic Functions Practice Tests

These Grade 11 Math practice tests develop quadratic-function skills across standard, factored, and vertex forms, including roots, discriminants, transformations, extrema, graph features, and real-world models.

Skills covered

  • Finding vertices, axes of symmetry, opening direction, maxima, and minima
  • Factoring quadratics and identifying x-intercepts, y-intercepts, and repeated roots
  • Using the discriminant and quadratic formula to classify and solve roots
  • Analyzing quadratic graphs, ranges, transformations, and completed-square form
  • Applying quadratic models to projectile motion, revenue, area, population, depreciation, and break-even contexts

How to use these practice tests

Choose the form that exposes the requested feature. Use vertex form for transformations and extrema, factored form for roots, and the quadratic formula or discriminant when factoring is not convenient.
