Key Topics to Revise
Solving Quadratic Equations
- A quadratic equation is of the form $ax^2 + bx + c = 0$, where $a \neq 0$.
- Two main methods: Factorization and Quadratic Formula.
- Factorization involves splitting the middle term and grouping.
Nature of Roots and Discriminant
- Discriminant $D = b^2 - 4ac$ decides the type of roots.
- If $D > 0$: two distinct real roots.
- If $D = 0$: two equal real roots (repeated root).
Relations Between Roots and Coefficients
- For $ax^2 + bx + c = 0$, sum of roots $\alpha + \beta = -\frac{b}{a}$
- Product of roots $\alpha\beta = \frac{c}{a}$
- These relations help in forming equations from given roots.
Sign of Quadratic Expression and Extreme Values
- The sign of $ax^2 + bx + c$ depends on the value of x and the coefficient 'a'.
- If D < 0, the expression has the same sign as 'a' for all real x.
- If D = 0, expression has same sign as 'a' except at vertex.
