### Quadratic Function Exercise

A quadratic function \( f \) is given:

\[ f(x) = x^2 + 4x - 1 \]

#### (a) Express \( f \) in standard form.

\[ f(x) = \boxed{\phantom{x}} \]

#### (b) Sketch a graph of \( f \).

**Instructions:**

1. **Standard Form Conversion:**
   - The given quadratic function is in the form \( ax^2 + bx + c \).
   - Convert it into the standard form \( a(x - h)^2 + k \) by completing the square.

2. **Graph Sketching:**
   - Identify the vertex, axis of symmetry, and direction of the parabola.
   - Use this information to sketch the graph accurately.
