WHRHS Unit 12 Solving Quadratic Equations 2012-2013 Algebra 2CP Unit 12 Day A Solving Quadratic Equations WHAT NEED

EED TO KNOW.. A. Terminology 1. Quadratic Equation Standard Form of the Quadratic Equation ax 2 bx c 0 2. Principle of Zero Product If the product of 2 factors equals 0 then at least one of the factors equals 0. 3. Double Root If a quadratic equation has 2 solutions that are the same then the solution is called a double root. B. Methods To Solve Quadratic Equations 1. Simply Factor using Factoring Methods you already know! 2. Square Root Method To Use this Method make sure whatever is squared is on one side of the equation and the constants are on the other side of the equation. Then take the square root of both sides. **Make sure your solutions use the correct notation of ! Example 1: Example 2: 2 3( x 2) 12 0
3( x 2) 2 12 3( x 2) 2 12 3 3 2 ( x 2) 4 ( x 2) 2 4 x 2 2i x 2 2i
