Algebra II TRIG Flashcards•As the year goes on we will add more and more flashcards to our collection. •Bring your cards every TUESDAY for eliminator practice!•Your flashcards will be collected on every test day! At the end of the quarter the grade received will be equivalent in value to a test grade. Essentially, if you lose your flashcards it will be impossible to pass the quarter.

What will my flashcards be graded on?

• Completeness – Is every card filled out front and back completely?

• Accuracy – This goes without saying. Any inaccuracies will be severely penalized.

• Neatness – If your cards are battered and hard to read you will get very little out of them.

• Order - Is your card #37 the same as my card #37?

Describe the Steps for “Completing the

Square”• How does it compare to the quadratic

formula?

#3

1.) Leading Coeff = 1 (Divide if necessary)

2.) Move ‘c’ over3.) Half ‘b’ and square (add to both sides)

4.) Factor and Simplify left side.5.) Square root both sides (don’t forget +/-)

6.) Solve for x.

*Same answer as Quadratic Formula.

SHIFTSLet f(x) = x2

Describe the shift performed to f(x)• f(x) + a• f(x) – a• f(x+a)• f(x-a)

#13

• f(x) + a = shift ‘a’ units upward• f(x) – a = shift ‘a’ units down.• f(x+a) = shift ‘a’ units to the left.• f(x-a) = shift ‘a’ units to the right.
