LESSON PROPER

There are equations that

are transformable into
quadratic equations.
LESSON PROPER

These equations may

be given in different
forms.
LESSON PROPER
Hence, the procedures in
transforming these equations
into quadratic equations may
also different.
LESSON PROPER

Once the equations

are transformed into
quadratic equations,
LESSON PROPER

then they can be solved

using the techniques or
methods of solving
quadratic equations.
LESSON PROPER
Such as extracting square
roots, factoring, completing
the square, and using the
quadratic formula.
