Examples, solutions, videos, and lessons to help High School students learn how to use
the method of completing the square to transform any quadratic
equation in
x into an equation of the form (
x +
p)
2
= q that has the same solutions. Derive the quadratic
formula from this form.
Suggested Learning Targets
- Transform a quadratic equation written in standard form to an
equation in vertex form (x + p)2
= q by completing the square.
- Derive the quadratic formula by completing the square on the
standard form of a quadratic equation.
The Quadratic Formula
Use the Quadratic Formula to solve quadratic equations.
Verify the solutions to a quadratic equation graphically when
possible.
