Quadratic Formula

Armed with their newfound (or refreshed) knowledge of the quadratic formula, viewers can now work with Sal to prove the formula - an important skill that is often ignored in algebra. Once they learn how to both use and prove the...

It's the video your algebra class has been waiting for - Sal explains the quadratic formula! He describes it as "one of at least the top five most useful formulas In mathematics" and recommends that it be memorized, as long as one also...

After defining intercept, Sal solves a simple equation to identify each intercept and then plots the line on a graph. This video would quite nicely complement an introductory lesson on graphing.

The quadratic formula is what works—always. Instruct your classes on the application of the quadratic formula using a thorough video lesson followed by provided practice problems. The lesson connects algebraic solutions to graphical...

This worksheet is part of the TI-Nspire lesson plan on the quadratic formula. Pupils determine the solutions of a quadratic function by looking at a graph and the discriminant. They use the quadratic formula to solve quadratic functions...

What do you do when you are trying to solve a quadratic equation and factoring and graphing aren't working out for you? Use the quadratic formula! Watch this video to find out exactly how to find your solutions with the quadratic...

If you or your class members are interested in how the quadratic formula is derived, then take a look at this video! The tutorial takes you through each step necessary to derive the quadratic formula from the general form for a quadratic...

In a linear equation, the x-intercept is really just the point where the graph of the line crosses the x-axis.

In a linear equation, the x-intercept is really just the point where the graph of the line crosses the x-axis.

Use an informative video on the quadratic equation to help math learners of all levels. Remember that if there is a solution, there will be two values. In word problems, it might be that only one of the values might answer the question....
