  1. VERTEX FORM

  2. Vertex Form • Vertex form is another form for quadratics • So far we know Standard form : y = ax² + bx + c • Intercept form : y = a(x – s)(x – t) • Vertex form is y = a(x – h)² + k • Why is vertex form useful?

  3. Vertex Form • Vertex form is useful when talking about quadratics because it tells us where the vertex is • When we are given a quadratic in vertex form, we can find our vertex by looking at (h, k)

  4. y = a(x – h)² + k • What is the vertex in the following examples? (h, k) • y = (x – 2)² + 1 • y = 2(x – 3)² + 4 • y = -3(x + 5)² - 1 • y = (x + 1)² • y = x ² - 5 • y = (x – 4)² + 2 • y = 3(4 + x)² + 1 • y = -0.5(x – 2)²

  5. Standard Form to Vertex Form • The quadratic equations that we have seen have mostly been in standard form • y = ax² + bx + c • What if we want our equation in vertex form to make it easier to graph and find the vertex? • y = a(x – h)² + k

  6. We have seen already how to change standard form to intercept form to be able to find the zeroes of a solution • Today we will learn how to change standard form to vertex form to be able to find the vertex • Now we will have a method for finding the zeroes and finding the vertex

  7. Standard Form to Vertex Form • We have a method that changes standard form to vertex form that we call completing the square

  8. Review Perfect Square Trinomial • This means we can factor ax² + bx + c into • (a – b)² or (a + b)² • For example, if we factor y = x² + 4x + 4 • We get y = (x + 2)² • Which is in vertex form with k = 0 • y = a(x – h)² + k • Let’s look at some more examples

  9. Completing The Square Some quadratic functions can written as a perfect square. x2 + 8x + 16 x2 + 10x + 25 (x + 5)2 (x + 4)2 (x - 2)2 (x - 6)2 Similarly when the coefficient of x is negative: x2 - 4x + 4 x2 - 12x + 36 What is the relationship between the constant term and the coefficient of x? The constant term is always (half the coefficient of x)2.

  10. (x + 1.5)2 (x + 2.5)2 (x - 3.5)2 (x - 4.5)2 Completing The Square When the coefficient of x is odd we can still write a quadratic expression as a non-perfect square, provided that the constant term is (half the coefficient of x)2 x2 + 3x + 2.25 x2 + 5x + 6.25 x2 - 7x + 12.25 x2 - 9x + 20.25

  11. = (x + 2)2 = (x + 5)2 = (x - 3)2 = (x - 6)2 Completing The Square This method enables us to write equivalent expressions for quadratics of the form ax2 + bx. We simply half the coefficient of x to complete the square then remember to correct for the constant term. x2 + 4x x2 + 10x - 4 - 25 x2 - 6x x2 - 12x - 9 - 36

  12. = (x + 2)2 = (x + 5)2 = (x - 1)2 = (x - 6)2 Completing The Square We can also write equivalent expressions for quadratics of the form ax2 + bx + c. Again, we simply half the coefficient of x to complete the square and remember to take extra care in correcting for the constant term. x2 + 4x + 3 x2 + 10x + 15 - 1 - 10 x2 - 2x + 10 x2 - 12x - 1 + 9 - 37

  13. = (x + 3)2 = (x + 1)2 = (x - 1.5)2 = (x - 2.5)2 Completing The Square We can also write equivalent expressions for quadratics of the form ax2 + bx + c. Again, we simply half the coefficient of x to complete the square and remember to take extra care in correcting for the constant term. x2 + 6x - 8 x2 + 2x + 9 - 17 + 8 Now try these x2 - 3x + 2 x2 - 5x - 3 - 0.25 - 9.25

  14. Questions 1 Completing The Square We can also write equivalent expressions for quadratics of the form ax2 + bx + c. Again, we simply half the coefficient of x to complete the square and remember to take extra care in correcting for the constant term. Questions: Write the following in completed square form: 1.x2 + 8x + 10 = (x + 4)2 - 6 2.x2 - 6x + 1 = (x - 3)2 - 8 3.x2 - 2x + 2 = (x - 1)2 + 1 4.x2 + 10x + 30 = (x + 5)2 + 5 5.x2 + 6x - 5 = (x + 3)2 - 14 6.x2 - 12x - 3 = (x - 6)2 - 39 7.x2 - x + 4 = (x - ½)2 + 3.75 8.x2 - 3x + 7.25 = (x - 1.5)2 + 5

  15. To complete the square for quadratics where our ‘a’ is a constant other than 1, we simply common factor ‘a’ from ‘a’ and ‘b’. • Note that we do not common factor ‘a’ out of term ‘c’ • Once ‘a’ is factored out, we complete the square the same way

  16. y = 3x² - 6x + 2

  17. y = 2x² - 12x - 1

  18. y = -0.5x² - x + 4

  19. Completing the Square • Completing the square for quadratic expressions helps us to sketch our graphs accurately with our vertex (h, k) and our ‘a’ value which gives us the direction of opening of our graph as well as how wide or narrow it is compared to y = x²

  20. However, being able to convert between all three forms is very important depending on what we want to use our equation for Recall the three forms are: Standard form – y = ax² + bx + c Vertex form – y = a(x – h)² + k Intercept form – y = a(x – s)(x – t) Let’s do some examples converting between the three forms
