In this video I work through 12 examples of solving quadratic equations using the square root method and completing the square. Even though we could solve each quadratic equation by factoring or ...

All quadratic functions have the same type of curved graphs with a line of symmetry. The graph of the quadratic function \(y = ax^2 + bx + c\) is a smooth curve with one turning point. The turning ...

First we need to complete the square to get the coordinates of the turning point. \(y = {x^2} + 2x + 3\) \(y = {(x + 1)^2} - 1 + 3\) \(y = {(x + 1)^2} + 2\) Therefore ...
