Competency: solves quadratic equations by: (a) extracting square roots; (b) factoring;
(c) completing the square; and (d) using the quadratic formula.

( M9AL - Ia-b– 1)

Objective: solve quadratic equations by extracting square root.

Discussion:

Quadratic equation that can be written in the form 𝑥 2 = 𝑘 can be solved by

applying the following properties.

1. If 𝑘 > 0, then 𝑥 2 = 𝑘 has two real solutions or roots: 𝑥 = ±√𝑘

2. If 𝑘 = 0, then 𝑥 2 = 𝑘 has one real solution or root: 𝑥 = 0
3. If 𝑘 < 0, then 𝑥 2 = 𝑘 has no real solutions or roots

The method in solving the quadratic equation 𝒙𝟐 = 𝒌 is called extracting square

roots.

Examples:

Solve the given equations by extracting square root.

1. 𝑥 2 − 16 = 0 2. 𝑡 2 = 0 3. 𝑠 2 + 9 = 0

Solutions: Write the equation in the form 𝑥 2 = 𝑘

1. 𝑥 2 − 16 = 0
𝑥 2 − 16 + 16 = 0 + 16 Add 16 to both sides of the equation.

1
 𝑥 2 = 16 Since, 16 is greater than 0 then, the first property
above can be applied to find the values of 𝑥 that will
make 𝑥 2 − 16 = 0 true.

𝑥 = ±√16 Extract the square root.

𝑥 =±4 Simplify.
𝑥 = 4, −4

To check, substitute these values in the original equation.

For 𝑥 = 4: For 𝑥 = −4:

𝑥 2 − 16 = 0 𝑥 2 − 16 = 0
(4)2 − 16 = 0 (−4)2 − 16 = 0
16 − 16 = 0 16 − 16 = 0
0 = 0 ( True) 0 = 0 ( True)

Both values of 𝑥 satisfy the given equation. So the equation 𝑥 2 − 16 = 0 is true

when 𝑥 = 4 or 𝑥 = −4 .

Answer: 𝒙 = 𝟒 or 𝒙 = −𝟒

2. 𝑡 2 = 0
Since 𝑡 2 is equal to 0, then the equation has only one solution.
That is, 𝑡 = 0

To check: 𝑡2 = 0
(0)2 = 0
0=0

Answer: The equation 𝑡 2 = 0 has one solution: 𝒕 = 𝟎

Write the equation in the form 𝑥 2 = 𝑘

3. 𝑠2 + 9 = 0
𝑠2 + 9 − 9 = 0 − 9 Subtract 9 to both sides of the equation.

𝑠 2 = −9 Since, - 9 is less than 0, then the equation 𝑠 2 + 9 has

no real solutions or roots. There is no real number
when squared gives – 9.

Answer: The equation 𝑠 2 + 9 = 0 has no real solutions or roots

Competency: solves quadratic equations by: (a) extracting square roots; (b) factoring;
(c) completing the square; and (d) using the quadratic formula. ( M9AL - Ia-b– 1)

Objective: solve quadratic equation 𝑎𝑥 2 + 𝑏𝑥 + 𝑐 = 0 where 𝑎 = 1 by factoring.

Discussion:

Some quadratic equations can be solved easily by factoring. To solve such

quadratic equations, the following procedure can be followed.

a. Transform the quadratic equation into standard form ( 𝑎𝑥 2 + 𝑏𝑥 + 𝑐 = 0 ) if

necessary.
b. Factor the quadratic expression.
c. Apply the zero product property by setting each factor of the quadratic
expression equal to 0.

Zero Product Property

If the product of two real numbers is zero either of the two is equal
to zero or both numbers are equal to zero.
If 𝑎𝑏 = 0 then 𝑎 = 0 or 𝑏 = 0 or 𝑎 = 𝑏 = 0

d. Solve each resulting equation.

e. Check values of the variable obtained by substituting each in original equation.

Examples:

Solve the given equations by factoring.

1. 𝑥 2 + 9𝑥 = −8 2. 𝑥 2 + 𝑥 − 6 = 0

Solutions:

1. 𝑥 2 + 9𝑥 = −8
a. Transform equation into standard form 𝑎𝑥 2 + 𝑏𝑥 + 𝑐 = 0.
𝑥 2 + 9𝑥 = −8 → 𝑥 2 + 9𝑥 + 8 = −8 + 8
𝑥 2 + 9𝑥 + 8 = 0
b. Factor the quadratic expression 𝑥 2 + 9𝑥 + 8.
𝑥 2 + 9𝑥 + 8 = 0 → (𝑥 + 1)(𝑥 + 8) = 0
c. Apply the zero product property by setting each factor of the
quadratic expression equal to 0.
(𝑥 + 1)(𝑥 + 8) = 0 → 𝑥 + 1 = 0 ; 𝑥 + 8 = 0
d. Solve each resulting equation.
𝑥+1= 0 → 𝑥+1−1=0−1
𝒙 = −𝟏
𝑥+8 =0 → 𝑥+8−8 =0−8
𝒙 = −𝟖
e. Check values of the variable obtained by substituting each in original
equation 𝑥 2 + 9𝑥 = −8.

For 𝑥 = −1 For 𝑥 = −8

𝑥 2 + 9𝑥 = −8 𝑥 2 + 9𝑥 = −8
(−1)2 + 9(−1) = −8 (−8)2 + 9(−8) = −8
1 − 9 = −8 64 − 72 = −8
−8 = −8 (True) −8 = −8 (True)

Both values of 𝑥 satisfy the given equation. So the equation 𝑥 2 + 9𝑥 = −8 is

true when 𝑥 = −1 or 𝑥 = −8.

Answer: 𝒙 = −𝟏 or 𝒙 = −𝟖
Since, it is already in the standard
form, we can skip Step 1.
2. 𝑥 2 + 𝑥 − 6 = 0
(𝑥 + 3)(𝑥 − 2) = 0 Factor the quadratic expression

𝑥+3= 0 𝑥−2= 0 Apply the zero product property

𝑥+3−3=0−3 𝑥−2+2 = 0+2 Solve each resulting equation
𝑥 = −3 𝑥=2

Checking:

For 𝑥 = −3: For 𝑥 = 2:

𝑥2 + 𝑥 − 6 = 0 𝑥2 + 𝑥 − 6 = 0
(−3)2 + (−3) − 6 = 0 (2)2 + (2) − 6 = 0
9−3−6 =0 4+2−6= 0
6−6 = 0 6−6= 0
0 = 0 (True) 4 0 = 0 (True)
 Both values of 𝑥 satisfy the given equation. So the equation 𝑥 2 + 𝑥 − 6 = 0 is
true when 𝑥 = −3 or 𝑥 = 2

Answer: 𝒙 = −𝟑 or 𝒙 = 𝟐

Discussion:

Extracting Square roots are usually used to solve quadratic equation of the form
𝑎𝑥 2 − 𝑐 = 0. If the factors of the quadratic expression of 𝑎𝑥 2 + 𝑏𝑥 + 𝑐 = 0 are
determined, then it is more convenient to use factoring to solve it.
Another method of solving quadratic equations is by completing the square. This
method involves transforming the quadratic equation 𝑎𝑥 2 + 𝑏𝑥 + 𝑐 = 0 into the form
(𝑥 − ℎ)2 = 𝑘, where 𝑘 ≥ 0. You can review on how to solve quadratic equation of the
form (𝑥 − ℎ)2 = 𝑘 in Q1,Week 1-2 / Day 4 (Example 2)
To solve quadratic equation 𝑎𝑥 2 + 𝑏𝑥 + 𝑐 = 0 by completing the square, the
following steps can be followed:

a. Divide both sides of the equation by 𝑎 then simplify.

b. Write equation such that the term with variables are on the left side of the
equation and the constant term is on the right side.
c. Add the square of one-half of the coefficient of 𝑥 on both sides of the resulting
equation. The left side of the equation becomes perfect square trinomial.
d. Express the perfect square on left side of the equation as a square of a binomial.
e. Solve the resulting equation by extracting square root.
f. Solve the resulting linear equations.
g. Check the solutions obtained against the original equation.

Examples:

Solve the given equations by completing the square.

1. 𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 − 21 = 0 2. 𝑥 2 − 6𝑥 − 41 = 0

Solutions:

1. 𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 − 21 = 0
a. Since, the coefficient of 𝑥 2 is already equal to 1 and it is also in the standard
form, we will just rewrite the given equation.
𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 − 21 = 0
b. Add 21 to both sides of the equation ad simplify.
𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 − 21 = 0 → 𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 − 21 + 21 = 0 + 21
𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 − 21 = 0 → 𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 = 21

c. Add to both sides of the equation the square of one-half of 4.

(4) = 2 → 22 = 4
2
𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 = 21 → 𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 + __ = 21 + __
𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 = 21 → 𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 + 4 = 21 + 4
𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 = 21 → 𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 + 4 = 25
d. Express 𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 + 4 as square of a binomial.
𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 + 4 = 25 → (𝑥 + 2)2 = 25
e. Solve (𝑥 + 2)2 = 25 by extracting square root.

8
 (𝑥 + 2)2 = 25 → 𝑥 + 2 = ±√25
(𝑥 + 2)2 = 25 → 𝑥 + 2 = ±5

f. Solve the resulting linear equations.

𝑥+2= 5 𝑥 + 2 = −5

𝒙=𝟑 𝒙 = −𝟕

g. Check the solutions obtained against the original equation 𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 − 21 = 0.

For 𝑥 = 3: For 𝑥 = −7:

𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 − 21 = 0 𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 − 21 = 0
(3)2 + 4(3) − 21 = 0 (−7)2 + 4(−7) − 21 = 0

21 − 21 = 0 21 − 21 = 0
0 = 0 (True) 0 = 0 (True)
