Solution Steps

To find the vertex of the parabola given by the function \( f(x) = (x-1)^2 \), we recognize that this is a standard form of a parabola \( f(x) = (x-h)^2 + k \), where the vertex is at the point \((h, k)\). In this case, the function is already in vertex form with \( h = 1 \) and \( k = 0 \).

Step 1: Identify the Vertex Form

The given function is \( f(x) = (x - 1)^2 \). This is in the vertex form of a parabola, which is expressed as \( f(x) = (x - h)^2 + k \), where \((h, k)\) represents the vertex.

Step 2: Determine \( h \) and \( k \)

From the function \( f(x) = (x - 1)^2 \), we can identify:

  • \( h = 1 \)
  • \( k = 0 \)
Step 3: Write the Vertex as an Ordered Pair

Thus, the vertex of the parabola is given by the ordered pair \((h, k)\), which is \((1, 0)\).

Final Answer

The vertex of the parabola is \(\boxed{(1, 0)}\).
