Solution

Definition of a quadratic equation :

Quadratic equations are the polynomial equations of degree 2 in one variable of type f(x)=ax2+bx+c where a,b,c,R and a0. It is the general form of a quadratic equation where ais called the leading coefficient and c is called the absolute term of f (x). The values of x satisfying the quadratic equation are the roots of the quadratic equation.

There are three different forms of quadratic equations, and they are:

  • Standard form: The standard form of a quadratic equation is represented by y=ax2+bx+c where a,b, and c are just the numbers.
  • Factored form: The factored form of a quadratic equation is represented byy=(ax+c)(bx+d) where a,b,c,and d are just the numbers.
  • Vertex for: The vertex form of a quadratic equation is represented by y=a(x+b)2+c where a,b, and c are just the numbers.
