ENGINEERING MATHEMATIC

 1.Quadratic Equation

  • invented by Muhammad ibn Musa Al Khwarizmi islamic scientist
  • followed by all around the world scientist
  • first usage at 2000 BC
  • from latin means 'square'
  • general equation ax^2 +bx + c= 0
  • three basic to get x value or roots value
    • Factoring
      • put all items at one side and equal sign of 0 at one side
      • Factor
      • Set each factor equal to 0
      • Solve the equation
      • Check the value of x
    • Quadratic formula
      • x=-b+/-Гb^2-4ac/2ab
    • Completing the square
      • put the equation
      • a=1,if not multiply 1/a to all the terms
      • Add (b/2)^2 to both side
      • Find the square root both side
      • solve the equation
  • three type of form of equation
    • standard form
    • factored form
    • vertex form
  • Quadratic equation also call degree 2 equation
  • can draw a parabolic or curve line and the apex point call vertex
  • if a + or -,the curve line will be open and close
  • if b value are adjust,the parabolic curve line will move from + to - and vise versa to x axis
  • if c value are adjust,the parabolic curve line will move from = to - and vise versa to y axis
Why important?
  • easy to find shape like circle,ellipses,parabola and etc
  • find the curve for flying object like tennis ball,softball and etc
  • to identify an object have a curve or the project like twisted buiding or curve shape
  • to know the target of the fire bomb from the cannon
  • to explain the planets revolving around the sun
  • newton motion law based on this formula
  • car design
  • household product design
  • economy predictable
  • nursing usage and etc
