QUADRATIC EQUATIONS

ILLUSTRATING AND SOLVING QUADRATIC EQUATIONS

 INTRODUCTION

In your previous year level, you have learned about linear

equations and how to find their solutions. You were also
given some applications to solve some real-life problems
using this concept. Now, since you are in a new grade level,
you will learn one of the most necessary topics in Algebra
which is about quadratic equations. In this lesson, you will
learn different ways to illustrate quadratic equation and it
will be helpful to understand the succeeding topics.
 OBJECTIVES

• K. Identifies which equations are quadratic and

which are not.

• S. Solves quadratic equations.

• A. Shows accuracy in solving quadratic equations.

 WHAT’S IN

Let us recall how to multiply polynomials.

Remember that to multiply two polynomials,

multiply each term of one polynomial by each term
of the other polynomial then simplify by combining
similar terms if needed.
 STUDY THE EXAMPLES BELOW:

a. 𝑥 ( 𝑥 + 5 ) = + 5𝑥

b. (𝑥 + 3) ( 𝑥 – 2) = + 𝑥 – 6

c. = + 6𝑥 + 9
 TRY THIS!

Multiply and simplify, if needed.

1. 𝑥 ( 2𝑥 – 7) 4.
2. (𝑥 + 5)( 𝑥 + 9) 5. (5𝑥 + 4) (5𝑥 – 4)
3. (2𝑥 – 1)( 𝑥 + 3) 6. (3𝑥 – 8) (𝑥 + 2)

 QUADRATIC EQUATIONS

QUADRATIC EQUATION → is an equation which is

in the second degree. It takes the form :
a + bx + c = 0
where a ,b, and c are real numbers and a ≠ 0.
a is the quadratic term
bx is the linear term
c is the constant term.
 EXAMPLE
2 − 3𝑥 + 5 = 0

 QUADRATIC EQUATIONS
In addition,
a in the quadratic term is the coefficient of which may be positive or
negative but not equal to zero.

b in the linear term is the coefficient of x which may be positive, negative

or zero.

c is the constant term which may be positive, negative or zero.

 INCOMPLETE FORMS OF QUADRATIC
EQUATION
1) + 𝑐 = 0; that is if 𝑏 = 0
Example : + 5 = 0

2) + 𝑏𝑥 = 0; that is if 𝑐 = 0
Example: − 3𝑥 = 0

3) = 0; that is if both b and c is equal to 0

Example: = 0
 DEGREE OF AN EQUATION

DEGREE OF AN EQUATION → is
determined through the highest exponent
of the variable in an equation.
 EXAMPLE

In − 3𝑥 + 5 = 0, the degree is 2
because it is the highest exponent.
 ACTIVITY

Classify these equations into two (A
and B), and complete table 2.
