Actually, we've already been working
with quadratics. They are the trinomial guys we've been factoring:


What makes them quadratics is that
they are 2nd degree polynomials.
|
(They have a squared guy like |

|
|
or |
 |
.) |
Now, we're going to be solving
equations with them like


Here's the big official form of a
quadratic equation:
Examples:





It would be silly to ever have
a =
0 in a
quadratic -- Then we wouldn't have a squared guy!
