Graphing Quadratic Equations from All Forms
Introduction to Solutions of a Quadratic Equation using Tables, Graphs, and Factoring.
CCSS Covered by this activity
A.REI.4b Solve quadratic equations in one variable.
(b) Solve quadratic equations by inspection (e.g., for x2 = 49), taking square roots, completing the square, the
quadratic formula and factoring, as appropriate to the initial form of the equation. Recognize when the quadratic
formula gives complex solutions and write them as a ± bi for real numbers a and b.
F.IF.8a Write a function defined by an expression in different but equivalent forms to reveal and explain
different properties of the function.
(a) Use the process of factoring and completing the square in a quadratic function to show zeros, extreme values,
and symmetry of the graph, and interpret these in terms of a context.
A.SSE.3a. Choose and produce an equivalent form of an expression to reveal and explain properties of the
quantity represented by the expression.
(a)Factor a quadratic expression to reveal the zeros of the function it defines.
