QUADRATIC TRINOMIAL A quadratic trinomial is a three termed expression with the highest power of the unknown being two(2) Example: (a) (b) The general formula for quadratic trinomial is . where a 0, a, b, c are contants Methods for solving Quadratic Trinomial Factorization method Completing the square method Quadratic Formula Graphically
Factorization Method : Procedure (a) multiply the first term of the quadratic trinomial by the last term = 0 First term middle term last term (b) find the two factors of the result in (a) that the sum will give the middle term (c) substitute for the middle term, factorize and solve Example (1) Solve =0 = 2x(x+ 1) -5(x+ 1) =0 (2x-5)=0 or (x+ 1)=0 2x=5 or x = -1 x = 5/2 or -1 -10
(2) Solve =0 = Substitute =0 =0 2x (5x +1 ) + 3(5x +1) =0 (5x + 1) = 0 or (2x +3 ) =0 5x = -1 or 2x = -3 x = -1/5 or x = -3/2 2. Completing the Square method Expand = (x + 3) (x +3) = = Therefore = To make the left hand perfect square = b is the half of a p is the square of b
Example: Make perfect square = = 2. = = If the coefficient of is not 1 ) Example : 1. Make a perfect square ) ) 2. Make a perfect square ) )
2. Solve :0 0 ) = 5 = To solve Quadratic Trinomial using Completing the square Method Example 1. Solve: = 0 (x+2)(x+2) =0 X+ 2= 0 or x +2 = 0 twice Take the square of both sides or or x = 5/2 or
3. Quadratic Formula a is the general formula of quadratic trinomial, if solve by completing the square then x = a is the coefficient of b is the coefficient of x c is the constant or last term
Example : Solve 5+ 13x=0 a = 5, b = 13, c = x = x = x = x = x = x = or x = x = or x = 2/ 5 or
