LESSON 2. Solving Quadratic Equations by Factoring

Let’s Recall…
Perfect Square Trinomial
Perfect square trinomials is a polynomial of
degree 2 resulting from a square of a binomial.

x2 + 10x + 25

4y + 24y + 36
2
Which of the following is a Perfect Square Trinomial?

a) 2x2 – 5x + 25 e) 4r2 + 20r + 25


b) t2 + 12t + 36 f) x2 – 16x + 64
c) s2 + 4s + 16 g) w2 – 5w + 25/4
d) x2 + 5x – 6 h) 4x2 + 12x – 9
Complete the Square. Then write the Perfect Square Trinomial in
factored form.
 

Solving Quadratic Equations by


Completing the Square:
Some quadratic equation can be solved by
“Completing the Square”
This is done by adding a constant on both sides
of the equation.

Given : x2 + 8x - 10 = 0

Completing the square: x2 + 8x + 16 = 10 + 16


Solving Quadratic Equations by
Completing the Square

Solving Quadratic Equation by Example Solve: x2 + 6x = - 8


Completing the Square
1. solate constant values
on the right side of the
equation.
2. Complete the square on
the left side. (Make sure
to add same value on
both sides)
3. Extract the roots.
