Explanation:
Conversion of a quadratic equation from standard form to vertex form is done by completing the square method.
Assume the quadratic equation to be where x is the variable.
Completing the square method is as follows:
- send the constant term to other side of equal
- divide the whole equation be coefficient of
, this will give
- add
to both side of equality
- Make one fraction on the right side and compress the expression on the left side
- rearrange the terms will give the vertex form of standard quadratic equation
Follow the above procedure will give the vertex form.
(NOTE : you must know that . Use this equation in transforming the equation from step 3 to step 4)
