  2. Completing the square - Wikipedia

    One way to see this is to note that the graph of the function f(x) = x 2 is a parabola whose vertex is at the origin (0, 0). Therefore, the graph of the function f(x − h) = (x − h) 2 is a parabola shifted to the right by h whose vertex is at (h, 0), as shown in the top figure.

  3. Square (algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_(algebra)

    For instance, the square of the linear polynomial x + 1 is the quadratic polynomial (x + 1) 2 = x 2 + 2x + 1. One of the important properties of squaring, for numbers as well as in many other mathematical systems, is that (for all numbers x), the square of x is the same as the square of its additive inverse −x.

  5. Quadratic formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_formula

    The roots of the quadratic function y = ⁠ 1 / 2x 2 − 3x + ⁠ 5 / 2 ⁠ are the places where the graph intersects the x-axis, the values x = 1 and x = 5. They can be found via the quadratic formula. In elementary algebra, the quadratic formula is a closed-form expression describing the solutions of a quadratic equation.

  6. Quadratic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_equation

    Because (a + 1) 2 = a, a + 1 is the unique solution of the quadratic equation x 2 + a = 0. On the other hand, the polynomial x 2 + ax + 1 is irreducible over F 4, but it splits over F 16, where it has the two roots ab and ab + a, where b is a root of x 2 + x + a in F 16. This is a special case of Artin–Schreier theory.

    A similar problem, involving equating like terms rather than coefficients of like terms, arises if we wish to de-nest the nested radicals + to obtain an equivalent expression not involving a square root of an expression itself involving a square root, we can postulate the existence of rational parameters d, e such that
