Strategies to use: (1) Look for a GCF to factor out of all terms
(2) Look for special factoring patterns as listed below
(3) Use the X-Box method

B. Solving quadratics using factoring
To solve a quadratic equation is to find the x values for which the function is equal to _____. The
solutions are called the _____ or _______of the equation. To do this, we use the Zero Product
Property:
Zero Product Property
List some pairs of numbers that multiply to zero:
(___)(___) = 0 (___)(___) = 0 (___)(___) = 0 (___)(___) = 0
What did you notice? _______________________________________________
ZERO PRODUCT PROPERTY
If the _________ of two expressions is zero, then _______ or _______ of
the expressions equals zero.
Algebra If A and B are expressions and AB = ____ , then A = _____ or B = __.
Example If (x + 5)(x + 2) = 0, then x + 5 = 0 or x + 2 = 0. That is,
x = __________ or x = _________.
Use this pattern to solve for the variable:
1. get the quadratic = 0 and factor completely
2. set each ( ) = 0 (this means to write two new equations)
3. solve for the variable (you sometimes get more than 1 solution)

Notes #22: Chapter 4 Review
To graph a quadratic function, you must FIRST find the vertex (h, k)!!
(A) If the function starts in standard form 2y ax bx c :
1st: The x-coordinate of the vertex, h, =
2
b
a
2nd
: Find the y-coordinate of the vertex, k, by plugging the x-coordinate into the function &
solving for y.
(B) If the function starts in intercept form ( )( )y a x p x q :
1st: Find the x-intercepts by setting the factors with x equal to 0 & solving for x.
2nd
: The x-coordinate of the vertex is half way between the x-intercepts.
3rd
: Find the y-coordinate of the vertex, k, by plugging the x-coordinate into the function &
solving for y.
(C) If the function starts in vertex form 2( )y a x h k :
1st: pick out the x-coordinate of the vertex, h. REMEMBER: h will have the OPPOSITE sign
as what is in the parenthesis!!
2nd
: Pick out the y-coordinate of the vertex, k. It will have the SAME sign as the what is in the
equation!
AFTER finding the vertex:
Make a table of values with 5 points: The vertex, plug in 2 x-coordinates SMALLER than
the x-coordinate of the vertex & 2 x-coordinates LARGER than the x-coordinate of the
vertex.
Direction of Opening:
If a is positive, the graph opens up
If a is negative, the graph opens down.
Width of the function:
If 1a , the graph is narrower than 2y x
If 1a , the graph is wider than 2y x

Methods for Solving Quadratic Equations:
A.) Factoring
1st: Set equal to 0
2nd
: Factor out the GCF
3rd
: Complete the X & box method to find the factors
4th
: Set every factor that contains an x in it, equal to 0 & solve for x.
B.) Completing the Square
1st: Move the constant (number with no variable) to the right so that all variables are on the left
& all constants are on the right.
2nd
: Divide every term in the equation by the value of a, if it is not already 1.
3rd
: Create a perfect square trinomial on the left side by adding
2
2
b
to both sides.
4th
: Factor the left side into a
2
2
bx
and simplify the value on the right side.
5th
: Take the square root of both sides of the equation. REMINDER: Don’t forget the
6th
: Solve for x
C.) Finding Square Roots
1st: Isolate the term with the square.
2nd
: Take the square root of both sides of the equation. REMINDER: Don’t forget the
3rd
: Solve for x.
D.) Quadratic Formula
1st: Set the equation equal to 0.
2nd
: Find the values of a, b, and c & plug them into the Quadratic Formula:
2 4
2
b b acx
a
3rd
: Simplify the radical as much as possible.
4th
: If possible, simplify the numerator into integers.
5th
: Divide. REMINDER: If you have 2 terms in the numerator (ex: 4 6 3
2
), divide BOTH
terms by the number in the denominator (the example would result in 2 3 3 )
Examples: Solve each equation by the method stated.
By Square Roots:
1.) (2y + 3) 2
= 49
2.) (3m – 1) 2
= 20
3.) 2(3 5) 1 11r
26
By Factoring:
4.) x2 – 4x – 5 = 0 5.) 23 2 21x x
6.) 22 15x x
By Completing the Square:
7.) x2 – 6x – 11 = 0 8.) 2y
2 + 6y – 18 = 0
9.) 2x2
– 3x – 1 = 0
By Quadratic Formula:
10.) x2 + x = 12
11.) 5x2 – 8x = -3 12.) 2x
2 = 4 – 7x
