What is Quadratic Form of a Polynomial Equation?
Note:
Did you know that sometimes quadratics can be used to make a more complicated polynomial easier to work with? This tutorial introduces you to quadratic form and shows you what a polynomial needs to have in order to be written in that form.
Background Tutorials
-
Understand that polynomials form a system analogous to the integers, namely, they are closed under the operations of addition, subtraction, and multiplication; add, subtract, and multiply polynomials.

What is a Polynomial?
If you learn about algebra, then you'll see polynomials everywhere! In this tutorial, you'll learn the definition of a polynomial and see some of the common names for certain polynomials.

-
Use the method of completing the square to transform any quadratic equation in x into an equation of the form (x - p)^2= q that has the same solutions. Derive the quadratic formula from this form.

What is a Quadratic Equation?
You can't go through algebra without seeing quadratic equations. The graphs of quadratic equations are parabolas; they tend to look like a smile or a frown. There's also a bunch of ways to solve these equations! Watch this tutorial and get introduced to quadratic equations!

-
Graph linear and quadratic functions and show intercepts, maxima, and minima.

What is a Quadratic Function?
You can't go through algebra without seeing quadratic functions. The graphs of quadratic functions are parabolas; they tend to look like a smile or a frown. In this tutorial, get introduced to quadratic functions, look at their graphs, and see some examples of quadratic functions!
