Quadratics Solving equations Using “Completing the Square”
Completing the square… ax² + bx + c = 0 Into the form p(x + r)² + s
Completing the square x² + 8x + 10 = 0 x² + 6x + 24 = 0 (x + 3)² (x + 4)² x² + 6x + 9 x² + 8x + 16 (x + 4)² - 6 = 0 (x + 3)² + 15 = 0
Completing the Square ax² + bx + c = 0 Into the form p(x + r)² + s 2x² + 4x + 15 2(x + 1)² + 13 2(x² + 2x) Complete the square: 2(x + 1)² 2(x² + 2x + 1) = 2x² + 4x + 2
Completing the Square • 4x² + 16x – 2 = 0 4(x + 2)² - 18 = 0 4(x² + 4x) Complete the square: 4 (x + 2)² 4 (x + 2)² = 4( x² + 4x + 4) = 4x² + 16x + 16
