For the quadratic Lagrange interpolation function, an algorithm is proposed to provide explicit and verified bound for the interpolation error constant that appears in the interpolation error estimation. The upper bound for the interpolation constant is obtained by solving an eigenvalue problem along with explicit lower bound for its eigenvalues. The lower bound for interpolation constant can be easily obtained by applying the Rayleigh-Ritz method. Numerical computation is performed to demonstrate the sharpness of lower and upper bounds of the interpolation constants over triangles of different shapes. An online computing demo is available at http://www.xfliu.org/onlinelab/.
