  1. The Quadratic Formula and the Discriminant College Algebra 1.4 (day3 Notes)

  2. We have a number of different ways of finding the roots of a quadratic equation #1. Solve by Taking Square Roots #2. Factoring #3. Completing the Square Now a new way that comes from completing the square. The Quadratic Formula

  3. The Quadratic Formula Solve for x by completing the square.

  4. Yes, you can remember this formula Pop goes the Weasel http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lbABbfU6Zc&feature=related Gilligan’s Island http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CWTt9QFioY&feature=related This one I can’t explain http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haq6kpWdEMs&feature=related

  5. How does it work Equation:

  6. How does it work Equation:

  7. The Discriminant The number in the square root of the quadratic formula.

  8. The Discriminant

  9. The Discriminant The Discriminant can be negative, positive or zero If the Discriminant is positive, there are 2 real answers. If the Discriminant is zero, there is 1 real answer. If the Discriminant is negative, there are 2 complex answers. complex answer have i.
