I. OBJECTIVES
A. Content Standards The learner demonstrates understanding of key concepts of quadratic
equations, inequalities and functions, and rational algebraic equations.
C. Learning Competencies/ Objectives The learner determines the equation of a quadratic function given: (a)
Write for the LC code for each table of values; (b) graph; (c) zeros (M9AL-Ij-1).
Subtask 1:
The learner determines the equation of a quadratic function given its
zeros.
3. Textbook pages Advanced Algebra, Trigonometry and Statistics: Textbook for Fourth
Year (Revised Edition), pp. 75-76.
B. Establishing a purpose for the lesson Given the equation of a quadratic function, you were able to determine
its zeros.
Let us find out whether your answers are correct or not. Today, let us
discover how to derive the equation of a quadratic function given only
its zeros.
C. Presenting examples/instances of the Activity 1: Do My Zeros Have a Relationship with the Numbers?(Pls. see
new lesson Appendix A) (Let the students analyze the relationship of zeros to the
coefficient of constant term (x) and to the constant term of the given
equation of a quadratic function. Then, realize how to find the equation
of a quadratic function given its zeros.)
D. Discussing new concepts and How did you find the activity?
practicing new skills #1 Were you able to identify the steps on finding the equation of a
quadratic function given its zeros?
How do you determine the equation of a quadratic function
given its zeros?
(The teacher will give the following zeros and will let the students
determine the equation of each quadratic function.)
Answers:
1. f(x) = x2 – 28x + 187
2. f(x) = 9x2 + 33x + 28
3. f(x) = 2x2 – 13x – 34
G. Finding practical applications of The teacher will present a picture of Luyang Cave and a problem on the
concepts and skills in daily living next page.
The edge of the outer part of Luyang Cave that is located at Lictin, San
Andres, Catanduanes is represented by an equation of a quadratic
function. If the quadratic function has zeros of -7/3 and 3, what is the
equation representing the cave? (Note: The edge of Luyang Cave opens
downward so the leading coefficient of the quadratic function should
be negative.)
Possible Answer:
f(x) = -3x2 + 2x + 21 or any quadratic function whose equation has zeros
-7/3 and 3 and whose value of a is any nonzero negative real number
H. Making generalizations and How do you determine the equation of a quadratic function given its
abstractions about the lesson zeros?
I. Evaluating learning Give five pairs of non integer rational zeros and write the quadratic
function f(x) of each.
J. Additional activities for application or Take 5 pictures of objects or places with parabolic features in your
remediation barangay. Assign a pair of non-integer rational zeros to each. Then,
determine the quadratic function representing each picture. Present
your output in a PowerPoint Presentation.
