1 Deriving the Quadratic Formula

2 The Quadratic Formula The solutions of a quadratic equation written in Standard Form, ax 2 + bx + c = 0, can be found by Using the Quadratic Formula.

3 Deriving the Quadratic Formula by Completing the Square. Divide both sides by “a”. Subtract constant from both sides.

4 Deriving the Quadratic Formula by Completing the Square. Complete The Square Factor the Perfect Square Trinomial Simplify expression on the left side by finding the LCD

5 Deriving the Quadratic Formula by Completing the Square. Take the square root of both sides Solve absolute value/ Simplify radical

6 Deriving the Quadratic Formula by Completing the Square. Isolate x Simplify Congratulations! You have derived The Quadratic Formula
