What Is It

Quadratic Equations that can be written in the form x2 = r, where r could be

any real number, can be solved by the method called Extracting Square Roots.

This method is used with the following properties as a guide:

Property 1. If r > 0, then x2 = r has two real solutions or roots: x = .

Example 1: Find the solutions of the equation x2 – 36 = 0 by extracting square

roots.

Solutions:

Rewrite x2 – 36 = 0 in the form x2 = r

by adding both sides of the equation by

36.

x2 – 36 = 0 x2 – 36 + 36 = 0 +36

x2 = 36

Since r = 36 which is greater than 0

(r > 0), we need to use Property 1 which

states “ If r > 0, then x2 = r has two real

solutions or roots: x = ” to find the

values of x that will make the equation

x2 – 36 = 0 true.

x2 = 36 x2 = 36

x =

x =

x = 6 or x = - 6

To check if the values we obtained is correct, we just substitute the values of

x in the original equation.

Checking:

For x = 6: For x = - 6

x2 – 36 ≟ 0 x2 – 36 ≟ 0

( 6 )2 – 36 ≟ 0 (- 6 )2 – 36 ≟ 0

36 – 36 ≟ 0 36 – 36 ≟ 0

0 0 0 0 =

Page 19: Quarter 1, Week 2 Module 2 Solving Quadratic Equations

9

Both values of x satisfy the given equation.

Thus x2 – 36 = 0 is true when x = 6 and x = -6.

Answer: The equation x2 – 36 = 0 has two solutions: x = 6 and x = -6.

Property 2. If r = 0, then x2 = r has one real solution or root: x = 0.

Example 2: Solve the equation m2 = 0.

Solutions:

The equation m2 = 0 is already in

the form x2 = r.

m 2 = 0

Since r = 0, we need to use the second

Property 2 which states “If r = 0, then x2

= r has one real solution or root: x = 0.”

That is, m = 0.

To check, we substitute the value of m in the original equation.

Checking:

For m = 0:

m2 ≟ 0

(0)2 ≟ 0

0 0

Answer: The equation m 2 = 0 has only one solution which is x = 0.

=

Note: A quadratic equation can have two or only one real solution(s).

In some cases, it can also have no real solutions.

Page 20: Quarter 1, Week 2 Module 2 Solving Quadratic Equations

10

Property 3. If r < 0, then x2 = r has no real solutions or roots.

Example 3: Find the roots of the equation x2 + 9 = 0.

Solutions:

Rewrite x2 + 9 = 0 in the form

x2 = r by adding both sides of the

equation by -9.

x2 + 9 = 0 x2 + 9 – 9 = 0 – 9

x2 = - 9

Since r = - 9 which is less than 0

(r < 0), we need to use Property 3 which

states “If r < 0, then x2 = r has no real

solutions or roots”. Because there is no

real number that gives - 9 when squared.

Answer: The equation x2 + 9 = 0 has

no real solutions or roots.

In the next example, other mathematical concepts you previously learned are

used along with the property needed to solve the quadratic equation by extracting

square roots. Study the steps to help you with the activities that follow.

Example 4: Find the solutions of the equation (x – 3)2 – 81 = 0.

Solutions:

To solve (x – 3)2 – 81 = 0, add 81

to both sides of the equation and

simplify.

(x – 3)2 – 81 + 81 = 0 + 81

(x – 3)2 = 81

Extract the square roots of both sides of

the equation.

(x – 3) =

The result gives us two equations:

x – 3 = 9 and x – 3 = - 9

x – 3 = 9 , x – 3 = - 9

Page 21: Quarter 1, Week 2 Module 2 Solving Quadratic Equations

11

Solve each equation to find the solutions.

For x – 3 = 9

x – 3 + 3 = 9 + 3

x = 12

For x – 3 = - 9,

x – 3 + 3 = -9 + 3

x = -6

To check, substitute the values of x in the original equation.

Checking:

For x = 12 For x = - 6

(x – 3)2 – 81 ≟ 0 (x – 3)2 – 81 ≟ 0

(12 - 3)2 – 81 ≟ 0 (-6 - 3)2 – 81 ≟ 0

(9)2 – 81 ≟ 0 (-9)2 – 81 ≟ 0

81 – 81 ≟ 0 81 – 81 ≟ 0

0 0 0 0

Both values of x satisfy the given equation.

The equation (x – 3)2 – 81 = 0 is true when x = 12 and x = -6.

Therefore, the equation (x – 3)2 – 81 = 0 has two solutions: x = 12 and x = - 6.

= =

standard form ax2 +bx +c = 0.

x2 + 7x = - 6 x2 + 7x +6 = 0

2. Factor the quadratic expression.

x2 + 7x + 6 = 0 (x + 6) (x +1) = 0

Recall: A quadratic trinomial is a product

of two binomials. Thus, we can check if

the factor (x + 6) (x +1) is the right factor.

If it is, we should get x2 + 7x + 6 after

applying FOIL method.

3. Apply the zero product property by

setting each factor of the quadratic

expression equal to 0.

(x + 6) (x +1) = 0

x + 6 = 0 , x +1 = 0

Zero Property Property

If the product of two real numbers is zero, then either of the two is equal to zero

or both numbers are equal to zero

Page 28: Quarter 1, Week 2 Module 2 Solving Quadratic Equations

4. Solve each resulting equation to get

the value of the variable

x + 6 = 0

x + - 6 = 0 – 6

x = - 6

x +1 = 0

x + 1 – 1 = 0 – 1

x = - 1

5. Check to determine if the values are

correct by substituting it from the

original equation.

Checking:

For x = -6:

x2 + 7x ≟ -6

(-6)2 + 7(-6) ≟ -6

36 – 42 ≟ -6

- 6 - 6

For x = -1:

x2 + 7x ≟ -6

(-1)2 + 7(-1) ≟ -6

1 – 7 ≟ -6

- 6 - 6

Both values of x satisfy the given equation.

Thus x2 + 7x = - 6 is true when x = -6 and x = -1.

Answer: The equation x2 + 7x = - 6 has two solutions: x = - 6 and x = -1.

Example 2: Factor 4x2 – 9 = 0 and solve for x.

Steps Solutions

1. Transform the equation into

standard form ax2 +bx +c = 0.

4x2 – 9 = 0

In this case, the quadratic equation

is already in standard form.

2. Factor the quadratic expression.

4x2 – 9 = 0 (2x – 3)(2x + 3) = 0

Recall: The expression x2 – y2 is a

Difference of Two Squares and its factor

is the expression ( x – y ) ( x + y ).

In this case, we can rewrite 4x2 – 9 to

(2x)2 – 32 which is an example of a

difference of two squares. Hence, its

factor is (2x – 3)(2x + 3).

= =

Page 29: Quarter 1, Week 2 Module 2 Solving Quadratic Equations

19

3. Apply the zero product property by

setting each factor of the quadratic

expression equal to 0.

(2x – 3) (2x + 3) = 0

2x – 3 = 0 , 2x + 3 = 0

4. Solve each resulting equation to get

the value of the variable

2x – 3 = 0

2x – 3 + 3 = 0 + 3

2x = 3

=

x =

2x + 3 = 0

2x + 3 - 3 = 0 - 3

2x = - 3

=

x =

5. Check to determine if the values are

correct by substituting it from the

original equation.

Checking:

For x = :

4x2 – 9 ≟ 0

4 – 9 ≟ 0

4 – 9 ≟ 0

9 – 9 ≟ 0

0 0

For x = :

4x2 – 9 ≟ 0

4 – 9 ≟ 0

4 – 9 ≟ 0

9 – 9 ≟ 0

0 0

Both values of x satisfy the given equation.

Thus 4x2 – 9 = 0 is true when x = and x = .

Answer: The equation 4x2 – 9 = 0 has two solutions: x = and x = .

= =

Page 30: Quarter 1, Week 2 Module 2 Solving Quadratic Equations

Example 3: Solve 4y2 +36 = - 24y.

Steps Solutions

1. Transform the equation into

standard form ax2 +bx +c = 0.

4y2 +36 = - 24y 4y2 + 24y + 36 = 0

2. Factor the quadratic expression.

4y2 + 24y + 36 = 0 (2y + 6) (2y + 6) = 0

(2y + 6) 2 = 0

In this case, the quadratic expression

4y2 + 24y + 36 is a Perfect Square

Trinomial, therefore its factors are

repeated.

Recall: A Perfect Square Trinomial

x2 ± 2xy + y2 has a factor in the form

(x ± y) (x ± y) or (x ± y)2.

Since 4y2 + 24y + 36 is a Perfect Square

Trinomial, we can rewrite it to

(2y)2 + 2(2y)(6) + 62 and its factor is the

expression (2y + 6) (2y + 6) or (2y + 6) 2

3. Apply the zero product property by

setting each factor of the quadratic

expression equal to 0.

(2y + 6) (2y + 6) = 0

2y + 6 = 0 , 2y + 6 = 0

Note: We can apply extracting square

roots method if we choose to use the

factor (2y – 6) 2.

4. Solve each resulting equation to get

the value of the variable.

2y + 6 = 0

2y + 6 – 6 = 0 – 6

2y = - 6

y = - 3

2y + 6 = 0

2y + 6 – 6 = 0 – 6

2y = - 6

y = - 3

Page 31: Quarter 1, Week 2 Module 2 Solving Quadratic Equations

21

In this case, we can say that the

quadratic equation has only one real

solution since the two equations obtained

the same value which is y = - 3.

5. Check to determine if the value is

correct by substituting it from the

original equation.

Checking:

4y2 +36 = - 24y

4( - 3 )2 +36 = - 24( - 3 )

4(9) +36 = 72

36 +36 = 72

72 72

The value of y satisfies the given equation.

Thus 4y2 +36 = - 24y is true when y = - 3.

Answer: The equation 4y2 +36 = - 24y has one solution: x = - 3.

What Is It

Extracting square roots and factoring are two methods commonly used to

solve quadratic equations of the form ax2 - c = 0 . If the factors of the quadratic

expression of ax2 + bx + c = 0 are determined, then it is more convenient to use

factoring to solve it.

Another method of solving quadratic equations is by completing the square.

This method involves transforming the quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0. into the

form (x – h)2 = k, where k ≥ 0. The value of k should be positive to obtain a real

number solution.

To solve the quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0 by completing the square,

the following steps can be followed:

1. Divide both sides of the equation by a then simplify.

2. Write the equation such that the terms with variables are on the left side of

the equation and the constant term is on the right side.

3. Add the square of one-half of the coefficient of x on both sides of the

resulting equation. The left side of the equation becomes a perfect square

trinomial.

4. Express the perfect square trinomial on the left side of the equation as a

square of a binomial.

5. Solve the resulting quadratic equation by extracting the square root.

6. Solve the resulting linear equations.

7. Check the solutions obtained against the original equation.

Example 1: Find the solutions of 2x2 + 12x – 14 = 0 by completing the square.

Steps Solution

1. Divide both sides of the equation by

the coefficient a then simplify.

In the given equation, 2x2 + 12x – 14 = 0,

a = 2.

2x2 + 12x – 14 = 0

=

x2 + 6x – 7 = 0

Page 40: Quarter 1, Week 2 Module 2 Solving Quadratic Equations

30

2. Write the equation such that the terms

with variables are on the left side of the

equation and the constant term is on the

right side.

x2 + 6x – 7 = 0 x2 + 6x – 7 + 7 = 0 + 7

x2 + 6x = 7

3. Add the square of one-half the

coefficient b on both sides of the

resulting equation. Then, the left side of

the equation becomes a perfect square

trinomial.

x2 + 6x = 7

Since b = 6,

( b ) ( 6 ) = 3 32 = 9

Thus, 9 will be added on both sides of

the equation

x2 + 6x = 7 x2 + 6x + 9 = 7 + 9

x2 + 6x + 9 = 16

4. Express the perfect square trinomial

on the left side of the equation as a

square of a binomial.

x2 + 6x + 9 perfect square trinomial

( x + 3)2 square of a binomial

Thus,

x2 + 6x + 9 = 16 (x + 3)2 = 16

5. Solve the resulting quadratic equation

by extracting the square

(x + 3)2 = 16 x + 3 =

x + 3 = 4

6. Solve the resulting linear equations.

x + 3 = 4 x + 3 = - 4

x + 3 – 3 = 4 – 3 x + 3 – 3 = -4 – 3

x = 1 x = - 7

Page 41: Quarter 1, Week 2 Module 2 Solving Quadratic Equations

7. Check the solutions obtained against

the original equation.

Checking:

For x = 1:

2x2 + 12x – 14 ≟ 0

2(1)2 + 12(1) – 14 ≟ 0

2(1) + 12 – 14 ≟ 0

2 + 12 – 14 ≟ 0

0 0

For x = -7:

2x2 + 12x – 14 ≟ 0

2(-7)2 + 12(-7) – 14 ≟ 0

2(49) – 84 – 14 ≟ 0

98 – 84 – 14 ≟ 0

0 0

Both values of x satisfy the given equation.

Thus 2x2 + 12x – 14 = 0 is true when x = 1 and x = -7.

Answer: The equation 2x2 + 12x – 14 = 0 has two solutions: x = 1 and x = - 7.

Example 2: Find the solutions of x2 - 8x - 9 = 0.

Steps Solution

1. Divide both sides of the equation by

the coefficient a then simplify.

In the given equation, x2 - 8x - 9 = 0,

a = 1.

Since a = 1, we don’t need to divide

both sides of the equations by 1 because

the equation will stay as it is.

x2 - 8x - 9 = 0

=

=

Page 42: Quarter 1, Week 2 Module 2 Solving Quadratic Equations

32

2. Write the equation such that the terms

with variables are on the left side of the

equation and the constant term is on the

right side.

x2 - 8x - 9 = 0 x2 - 8x – 9 + 9 = 0 + 9

x2 - 8x = 9

3. Add the square of one-half the

coefficient b on both sides of the

resulting equation. Then, the left side of

the equation becomes a perfect square

trinomial.

x2 - 8x - 9 = 0

Since b = 8,

( b ) ( 8 ) = 4 42 = 16

Thus, 16 will be added on both sides of

the equation

x2 - 8x = 9 x2 - 8x + 16 = 9 + 16

x2 - 8x + 16 = 25

4. Express the perfect square trinomial

on the left side of the equation as a

square of a binomial.

x2 - 8x + 16 perfect square trinomial

( x – 4 )2 square of a binomial

Thus,

x2 - 8x + 16 = 25 (x - 4)2 = 25

5. Solve the resulting quadratic equation

by extracting the square

(x - 4)2 = 25 x – 4 =

x – 4 = 5

6. Solve the resulting linear equations.

x – 4 = 5 x – 4 = - 5

x – 4 + 4 = 5 + 4 x – 4 + 4 = - 5 + 4

x = 9 x = - 1

Page 43: Quarter 1, Week 2 Module 2 Solving Quadratic Equations

33

7. Check the solutions obtained against

the original equation.

Checking:

For x = 9:

x2 - 8x - 9 ≟ 0

(9)2 – 8(9) – 9 ≟ 0

81 – 72 – 9 ≟ 0

0 0

For x = -1:

x2 – 8x – 9 ≟ 0

(-1)2 – 8(-1) – 9 ≟ 0

1 + 8 – 9 ≟ 0

0 0

Both values of x satisfy the given equation.

Thus x2 - 8x – 9 = 0 is true when x = 9 and x = -1.

Answer: The equation x2 - 8x – 9 = 0 has two solutions: x = 9 and

x = -1.

What Is It

The equation we obtained in activity 3 is what we call the Quadratic Formula

for solving any quadratic equations in the form ax2 + bx + c = 0.

To use it, you must follow these steps:

1. Write the equation to its standard form ax2 + bx + c = 0. If it is already

written in standard form, proceed to the next step.

2. Determine the values of the coefficients a, b, and c.

3. Substitute these values in the Quadratic Formula:

.

4. Evaluate and simplify the result.

5. Check the solutions obtained using the original equation.

Page 51: Quarter 1, Week 2 Module 2 Solving Quadratic Equations

Study the example that follows to help you understand more.

Example 1: Find the solutions of the equation 2x2 + 3x = 27 using the quadratic

formula.

Steps Solution

1. Write the equation to its standard

form ax2 + bx + c = 0

2x2 + 3x = 27 2x2 + 3x – 27 = 0

2. Determine the values of the

coefficients a, b, and c.

2x2 + 3x – 27 = 0

a = 2, b = 3, and c = - 27

3. Substitute these values in the

Quadratic Formula:

4. Evaluate and simplify the result.

x = 3

We obtained two equations

Page 52: Quarter 1, Week 2 Module 2 Solving Quadratic Equations

42

5. Check the solutions obtained using

the original equation.

Checking:

For x = 3:

2x2 + 3x ≟ 27

2(3)2 + 3(3) ≟ 27

2(9) + 9 ≟ 27

18 + 9 ≟ 27

27 27

For x = :

2x2 + 3x ≟ 27

2( )2 + 3( ) ≟ 27

2( ) - ≟ 27

- ≟ 27

27 27

Both values of x satisfy the given equation.

Thus 2x2 + 3x = 27 is true when x = 3 and x = .

Answer: The equation 2x2 + 3x = 27 has two solutions: x = 3 and x = .
