Examples, solutions, videos, and lessons to help High School students learn how to solve quadratic equations by inspection (e.g., for x2 = 49), taking square roots, completing the square, the quadratic formula and factoring, as appropriate to the initial form of the equation. Recognize when the quadratic formula gives complex solutions and write them as a ± bi for real numbers a and b.
Suggested Learning Targets
- Solve quadratic equations in one variable by simple inspection, taking the square root, factoring, and completing the square.
- Understand why taking the square root of both sides of an equation yields two solutions.
- Use the quadratic formula to solve any quadratic equation, recognizing when the formula produces complex solutions. Write the solutions in the form a Ңi , where a and b are real numbers.
- Explain how complex solutions affect the graph of a quadratic equation.
