7.3 Completing the Square

Summary 1:

The standard form of a quadratic equation is ax2 + bx + c = 0, where a, b, and c are real numbers and a≠0.

Note: The coefficient a is often referred to as the leading coefficient.

A perfect square trinomial results from squaring a binomial:

(x + a)2 = x2 + 2ax + a2

Note: The constant in a perfect square trinomial is equal to the square of one-half of the coefficient of the x-term.

Rewriting a quadratic equation in the form x2 = a:

1. Put the given equation in standard form.

2. If the leading coefficient is not 1, apply the multiplication property of equality by dividing each term on both sides by the given leading coefficient.

3. Apply the addition property of equality to move the constant to the right side of the equation.

4. Examine the remaining terms on the left side to determine what value must be added to obtain a perfect square trinomial on the left side of the equation. This is done by finding the square of one-half of the coefficient of the x-term.

5. Apply the addition property of equality by adding the result from

step 4 to both sides of the equation.

6. Express the perfect square trinomial found in step 5 as the square of a binomial.

7. The quadratic equation is now in the form x2 = a where x represents a binomial and a represents a real number.

1. x2 + 7 = 3x

2. 2x2 + 5x = 3

3. 4x2 - 20x + 25 = 0

Worksheet 41 (7.4)

Summary 2:

The root of an equation is another name for solution.

The discriminant is the number which appears under the radical sign (radicand) in the quadratic formula: b2 - 4ac.

The discriminant indicates the kind of roots a quadratic equation will have. It allows for looking ahead to tell the type of solution that can be expected.

Nature of roots for ax2 + bx + c = 0:

1. If b2 - 4ac < 0, then the equation has two nonreal complex solutions.

2. If b2 - 4ac = 0, then the equation has one real solution with multiplicity of two.

3. If b2 - 4ac > 0, then the equation has two real solutions.

Evaluating the discriminant to determine the nature of the roots for a quadratic equation:

1. Rewrite equation in standard form: ax2 + bx + c = 0

2. Identify a, b, and c from the standard form.

3. Recall the expression for the discriminant: b2 - 4ac

4. Substitute a, b, and c and evaluate the expression.

5. Use this value to compare to 0, see list above, and determine the type of solution that will be obtained.

Note: The equation can be solved to verify the conclusions made using the discriminant.

Warm-up 2. Use the discriminant to determine the nature of the roots:

a) x2 + 5x - 24 = 0 ; a = ____, b = ____, c = ____

b2 - 4ac = ( )2 - 4( )( )

= 25 + ( )

= _____

Circle the true statement:

121 < 0 ; two nonreal complex solutions

121 = 0 ; one real solution with a multiplicity of two

121 > 0 ; two real solutions

Therefore, x2 + 5x - 24 = 0 has _______________ solutions.

Worksheet 41 (7.4)

b) 2y2 + 17 = 6y

____________________ = 0 ; a = ____, b = ____, c = ____

b2 - 4ac = ( )2 - 4( )( )

= _____ - 136

= _____

Circle the true statement:

-100 < 0 ; two nonreal complex solutions

-100 = 0 ; one real solution with multiplicity of two

-100 > 0 ; two real solutions

Therefore, 2y2 + 17 = 6y has ______________________ solutions.

Problems - Use the discriminant to determine the nature of the roots:

4. 9x2 - 12x = 60

5. x2 + 12x + 36 = 0

Summary 3:

All quadratic equations have two roots, x1 and x2.

Note: When b2 - 4ac = 0, there is one real solution with a multiplicity of two. This means that the two roots are equal.

Given ax2 + bx + c = 0 with roots x1 and x2, the two following relationships hold true:

1. Sum of the Roots: x1 + x2 =[pic]

2. Product of the Roots: (x1)(x2) =[pic]

Both of these relationships can be tested. If both test true, then the values are in the solution set. The sum and product of the roots can be used to replace traditional checking which may be cumbersome with irrational or complex roots.
