The Quadratic Formula
Free
This was born out of an exam question that asked students to work the quadratic formula backwards (ie. from simplified quadratic formula to original equation). I have hopefully scaffolded this appropriately. The second page, a matching activity, asks students to link a quadratic function to it’s roots/solutions. I’m rather hoping that the link will become obvious to the students, but who knows?! Either way it should lead to some discussion about quadratics. Typo corrected!
