SOLVING QUADRATIC EQUATIONS

I. To solve a quadratic equation means to find the roots of the quadratic equation.

2- The roots of an equation are the values of its variable for which the equation is true

(usually refers to the values of the variable that makes the equation equal to zero).

3 .

The general form of a quadratic equation is

THE VERTEX FORM OF A QUADRATIC FUNCTION www.inttuition.com

1. The general form of a quadratic function can tell us the shape by referring to the sign of ‘a’.

2. A more useful form of the quadratic function is the vertex form.

3 We can change the general form to vertex form via completing the square.
