SUBJECT: Quadratic Formula and Complex numbers pg. 354 #3a-f GRADE: 11TH GRADE The quadratic formula helps us solve any quadratic equation. First, we bring the equation to the form ax²+bx+c=0, where a, b, and c are coefficients. Then, we plug these coefficients in the formula: (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a). The vertex form of a quadratic function is f(x) […]
