Key Topics to Revise

1

Introduction to Quadratic Equations

  • A quadratic equation is formed when a quadratic polynomial ax² + bx + c is equated to zero
  • The standard form is ax² + bx + c = 0, where a, b, c are real numbers and a ≠ 0
  • Quadratic equations arise in real-life situations like area problems, projectile motion, and optimization
2

Solution by Factorisation Method

  • Factorisation involves splitting the middle term of the quadratic expression
  • Find two numbers whose product equals ac and sum equals b
  • Factorise the expression into two linear factors
3

Quadratic Formula

  • Universal method that works for all quadratic equations
  • Derived by completing the square method
  • Provides exact values of roots
4

Nature of Roots (Discriminant)

  • Discriminant Δ = b² - 4ac determines the nature of roots
  • If Δ > 0: Two distinct real roots
  • If Δ = 0: Two equal real roots (repeated roots)
