Solving Quadratic Equations using the 4 Methods (Part 1)

4 Methods in Solving Quadratic Equations

Extracting the Square Root
Factoring
Completing the Square
Quadratic Formula

Math Focus 1: Solving Quadratic Eq. by Extracting the Square Root

Just like in solving equations, if we want to find the value of x, we put all the constants on one side, and all the terms with x on the other side. Since quadratic equations contain the term $x^2$ , we can find the value of x by extracting its square roots.

Note: If it happens that the value of x is a square root of any negative number, then there are no real solutions. In other words, the quadratic equation being solved has no real solutions.

A. Let's Practice!

Solve the quadratic equations by Extracting the Square Root.

Check your answers by substituting the value of x to the given equation.

Multiple Choice

1. Extracting the Square Root.

3𝑥^2−4=8

$x=-1,\ 1$

$x=-2,2$

$x=-3,3$

$x=-4,4$

Multiple Choice

2. Extracting the Square Root.

2(𝑥+2)^2−8=56

$x=-4,\ 8$

$x=-8,\ 4$

$x=2\pm4\sqrt{2}$

$x=-2\pm4\sqrt{2}$

ANSWER KEY

A Let's Practice Activity 1 and 2

Concept Summary

The standard form of quadratic equation $ax^2$ + 𝑏𝑥 + 𝑐 = 0 where b is equal to 0 can take the form $ax^2$ = 𝑐.
Simplify $ax^2$ = 𝑐 by combining like terms, if any, until it is reduced to $x^2$ = 𝑐.
Determine its two possible roots, $x=\sqrt{c}$ 𝑎𝑛𝑑 $x=-\sqrt{c}$ where c is a nonnegative real number.
Simplify the roots if necessary and check for accuracy.

Math Focus 2: Solving Quadratic Equations by Factoring

We apply the principle of zero product to determine the solutions of the given problem and other similar problems.

In the principle of zero product, if

𝑎𝑏 = 0, then 𝑎 = 0 𝑜𝑟 𝑏 = 0.

B. Let's Practice!

Solve the Quadratic Equations by Factoring.

Check your answers by substituting the value of x to the given equation.

ANSWER KEY

B. Let's Practice 1 and 2

Concept Summary

Here are some suggested steps to be followed in solving quadratic equations by factoring.
1. Write the equation in general form $𝑎𝑥^2+𝑏𝑥+𝑐=0.$
2. Combine like terms if possible.
3. Factor the left-hand side of the given equation.
Use the principle of zero product.
Solve each resulting linear equation.
Check each root by substituting it in the original equation.

Math Focus 3: Solving Quadratic Equation by Using the Quadratic Formula

If a quadratic equation is in the form $𝑎𝑥^2+𝑏𝑥+𝑐=0$ , you can use values for a, b, and c to find the solution of the equation. That is, you can find those values of x that will make the equation true by using the quadratic formula.
