The formula y=ax²+bx+c or x=ay²+by+c represents the standard form of a parabola. The way to find it is through a process called completing the square, which involves reorganizing and simplifying the equation handed to you. The coefficient of x² or y², known as 'a', can be used to determine the orientation and breadth of the parabola.
