Solving Quadratic Equations by Factoring and Formula

The Organic Chemistry Tutor

This instructional video provides a comprehensive tutorial on solving quadratic equations through two primary methods: factoring and the quadratic formula. The narrator begins by demonstrating the "difference of perfect squares" technique for binomials, progressing to factoring trinomials where the leading coefficient is 1, and eventually tackling more complex trinomials where the leading coefficient is greater than 1 using the "AC method" and factoring by grouping. Each step is modeled clearly on a digital whiteboard with voiceover explanation.
