You need to understand the two number lines, the x-axis and the y-axis, as two number lines meeting at a right angle.

The left-side member of the given inequality CAN represent a parabola y=x%5E2-2x%2B1.


Here is a cartesian coordinate system.
The horizontal axis is a number line representing numbers for the variable, x.
Th vertical axis is a number line representing numbers for the variable, y.

Here is again, the graph of the parabola y=x%5E2-2x%2B1=%28x-1%29%5E2.
graph%28300%2C300%2C-12%2C12%2C-12%2C12%2C%28x-1%29%5E2%29
Where is x%5E2-2x%2B1 greater than 0 ?
