Factorising is used when there is a quadratic equation and factors can be used to find the roots of the equation. In this class, students will gain a better understanding of what a root is as well as the link between a root and the quadratic equation. Students will then learn how to factorise and work out the root. This class is aimed at students in Years 10 and 11 who want to feel confident in quadratic equations and roots!
