Completing the Square

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet
This Completing the Square assessment also includes:
  • Completing the Square Video
  • Answer Key
  • Join to access all included materials

Learners review how to use the completing-the-square method to identify maximum and minimum values of a quadratic function by watching a video. They see how the vertex form relates to the extreme values of a quadratic function, and use this knowledge to complete a worksheet.
