In the previous lesson, you completed the square to solve quadratic

equations. If you complete the square of ax2 + bx + c = 0, you can derive

the Quadratic Formula.

What Does The Formula Do ?

The Quadratic formula allows you to find the roots of a quadratic equation (if they exist) even if the quadratic equation does not factorise.The formula states that for a quadratic equation of the form :

ax2 + bx + c = 0 The roots of the quadratic equation are given by :

Example 2

Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation :8x 2 + 2x - 3= 0

Solution:

8x 2 + 2x - 3= 0a = 8 b = 2 c = -3

Because the Quadratic Formula contains a square root, the solutions may be irrational. You can give the exact solution by leaving the square root in your answer, or you can approximate the solutions.
