document.write( "Quadratic Equations  belong to a group of Equations called Conics:      
\n" );
document.write( "Ax 2 + Bxy + Cy 2 + Dx + Ey + F = 0
\n" );

\n" );
document.write( "y = ax^2 + bx + c  0r x = ay^2 + by + c
\n" );
document.write( "Using the Vertex Form:
\n" );
document.write( " y= a(x-h)2 +k  (opening ↕)
\n" );
document.write( " or x=a(y-k)2 +h (opening ↔)
\n" );
document.write( "Best describes the Curve as a Parabola with vertex (h,k) 
\n" );
document.write( "For ex:
\n" );
document.write( " y = x^2 - 2x + 1  
\n" );
document.write( "   =    Vertex is (1,0) opening Up  (a = 1 >0)
