Definition
standard form The standard forms are provided below, accompanied by their general graphs and key features. Learning to interpret these forms connects algebraic and geometric representations of mathematical phenomena.
Mechanism
standard form A quadratic equation written in standard form, a x 2 + b x + c = 0, can be solved using the quadratic formula. The equation can be rewritten using h and k.
Effects
standard form Substituting a 2 and b 2 into the standard form determines which equation applies. The standard form is used to identify the correct form for the given equation.
