Functions Of The Roots Of A Quadratic Equation

Muhtasari

What if you could discover properties of a quadratic's roots without ever solving the equation? The relationships between the coefficients and the roots of a quadratic give you exactly that power, letting you evaluate expressions involving the roots and even build entirely new equations from transformed roots.

In this topic you will master the sum and product of roots, learn to express higher-power symmetric functions in terms of these two building blocks, and practise the exam technique of forming a new quadratic whose roots are given as functions of the original ones. These skills appear on almost every 4PM1 paper and carry substantial marks.

Malengo

  1. Understand and use the relationships between roots and coefficients of ax^2 + bx + c = 0
  2. Form an equation with given roots expressed in terms of the original roots

Maelezo ya Somo

Given a quadratic equation, you can always find its roots by factorising or using the formula. But many exam questions ask you to work with the roots without finding them individually. Instead, you use two elegant relationships that connect the roots directly to the coefficients of the equation. These are sometimes called Vieta's formulas, and they unlock a whole family of powerful results.
