Answers: Completing the Square 1 www..mathsprint.co.uk

1: a) x2 + 4x = (x + 2)2 − 4
1
2 b) x2 + 8x + 24 = (x + 4)2 + 8

c) x2 − 2x + 8 = (x − 1)2 + 7

2: a) x2 − 8x + 20 = (x − 4)2 + 4 ∴ line of symmetry is x = 4.

2

b) x2 + 10x + 35 = (x + 5)2 + 10 ∴ line of symmetry is x = −5.

c) x2 + 6x + 1 = (x + 3)2 − 8 ∴ line of symmetry is x = −3.

3: a) x2 + 2x − 8 = (x + 1)2 − 9 ∴ minimum value is x = −9.


1
2

b) x2 − 4x + 13 = (x − 2)2 + 9 ∴ minimum value is x = 9.

c) x2 − 10x + 23 = (x − 5)2 − 2 ∴ minimum value is x = −2.

4: a) x2 − 6x + 14 = (x − 3)2 + 5 ∴ vertex is (3, 5).


1
2

b) x2 + 4x + 6 = (x + 2)2 + 2 ∴ vertex is (−2, 2).

c) x2 − 2x − 2 = (x − 1)2 − 3 ∴ vertex is (1, −3).
