Graphical Method of Solving a Quadratic Equation - Numerical 
Let See a Graphical Method of Solving a Quadratic Equation 
Draw the graph of y = 2x2 
Solution: 
Prepare a table of the corresponding values of x and y which satisfy the relation y 2x2. 
When x = 0 
y = 2(0)2 
therefore y = 0 
Similarly for different values of x,y is obtained. 
Now lets see how to draw the graph of y = 2x2. 
Scale: 1 cm = 1 unit. 
The coordinates of x and y for point A are (0,0) for point B are (1,2) for point C are (2,8) for point D are (-1,2) for point E are (-2,8). 
Now join the points and what we get is a parabola. 
Therefore, the graph of y = 2x2 is a parabola.
