Solving Quadratic Equations (AQA A-Level Mathematics): Flashcards

Multiply to $c$, add to $b$

First and last coefficients: $a \times c$

Split it using those 2 numbers

Factorize each pair by grouping

Set each factor to zero, then solve

One (or both) factors must be zero

Equation mode, polynomial, degree 2

Coefficients $a$, $b$, $c$

Save time & check, but show method for marks

$2$ and $-8$
