Standard: MGSE9-12.A.REI.4b Solve quadratic equations by inspection (e.g., for x^2 = 49), taking square roots, factoring, completing the square, and the quadratic formula, as appropriate to the initial form of the equation (limit to real number solutions).
Objective #3: Student will be able to complete the square on the standard form of a quadratic equation in order to derive the quadratic formula and generalize the connection between completing the square and the quadratic formula.
Objective #4: Student will be able to solve quadratic equations by inspection, taking square roots, factoring, completing the square, and the quadratic formula in order to determine the most effective method as appropriate to the initial form of the equation (limit to real number solutions).
Objective #2: Student will be able to solve quadratic equations by factoring in order to find the zeros of the function defined by the expression.
Objective #5: Student will be able to translate a quadratic equation into an equation that highlights a specific variable (solving literal equations) in order to manipulate and solve contextual problems for specified variables.
Objective #1: Student will be able to generate equivalent quadratic expression by factoring and recognizing special products in order to identify patterns in the structure of a quadratic expression.
