Solving Quadratics Project
For this project, you will create a visual display (poster, PowerPoint, website, etc) of the
methods used to solve a quadratic equation.
For each method (graphing, completing the square, factoring, and quadratic formula), do
the following:
1. Describe in 2-3 complete sentences when this method is the best choice for solving
a quadratic equation.
2. Provide an example of a quadratic equation where the method is a good choice for
solving. Solve the quadratic equation with that method.
3. Provide an example of a quadratic equation where the method is not a good choice
for solving. Provide an explanation of why this method would not work well for
this quadratic equation.
Your visual display must be look professional and show creativity. You will have a class
time to work on this project on ____________________________________________. You need to make
sure you bring the materials you need to work on this project with you to class on this day.
Project is due on _______________________________________________ .
