Replies Elephantis Posted at 2:13 am on June 19, 2008 I FUCKING HATE COMPLETING THE SQUARE skfgMKJSHGFhsdkgKJSHDKJshgdkjSHDG!!! and quadratics. foreign lauren 2 Posted at 9:04 pm on June 18, 2008 it's half squared panicxparadox Posted at 6:22 pm on June 18, 2008 OH BOY! I'll do an easy one off the top of my head so you can get the idea. Say it's: x^2+4x+y^2+4y=6 To factor it you need the extra term. so in this case, fill in the blanks with the number necessary for you to factor it, what you do to one side you do to the other. x^2+4x+__+y^2+4y+___=6+__+__ x^2+4x+4+y^2+4y+4=14 Then solve. xsnortingxashesx Posted at 6:20 pm on June 18, 2008 I was so bad at that! kk327 Posted at 6:20 pm on June 18, 2008 Quote: from why o u at 9:16 pm on June 18, 2008 what square? you in college? for quadratics...or conic sections, its algebra one or two depending on hwo the school is set up.   fedoragirl Posted at 6:19 pm on June 18, 2008 I hate Algebra.  Just search Algebra help on Google.  Tips will come up and then search Completing the Square if you can't find what you need.
