Answer:

vertex = (2, - 14 )

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

(h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

Given

f(x) = x² - 4x - 10

Using the method of completing the square

add/ subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to x² - 4x

f(x) = x² + 2(- 2)x + 4 - 4 - 10

     = (x - 2)² - 14 ← in vertex form

with vertex (h, k ) = (2, - 14 )
