01 Functions
Absolute Value Function Inverse Function
If y = f ( x ) , then f −1 ( y ) = x
f ( x ), if f ( x ) ≥ 0
f ( x) Remember:
− f ( x), if f ( x ) < 0 Object = the value of x
Image = the value of y or f(x)
f(x) map onto itself means f(x) = x
02 Quadratic Equations
General Form Quadratic Formula
ax 2 + bx + c = 0
−b ± b 2 − 4ac
where a, b, and c are constants and a ≠ 0. x=
2a
*Note that the highest power of an unknown of a
quadratic equation is 2. When the equation can not be factorized.
Forming Quadratic Equation From its Roots: Nature of Roots
If α and β are the roots of a quadratic equation
b c
α +β =− αβ = b 2 − 4ac >0 ⇔ two real and different roots
a a
b 2 − 4ac =0 ⇔ two real and equal roots
The Quadratic Equation b 2 − 4ac <0 ⇔ no real roots
x 2 − (α + β ) x + αβ = 0 b 2 − 4ac ≥0 ⇔ the roots are real
or
x − ( SoR ) x + ( PoR ) = 0
2
SoR = Sum of Roots
PoR = Product of Roots

03 Quadratic Functions
General Form Completing the square:
f ( x) = ax 2 + bx + c f ( x) = a ( x + p)2 + q
where a, b, and c are constants and a ≠ 0. (i) the value of x, x = − p
(ii) min./max. value = q
*Note that the highest power of an unknown of a (iii) min./max. point = (− p, q)
quadratic function is 2. (iv) equation of axis of symmetry, x = − p
Alternative method:
a > 0 ⇒ minimum ⇒ ∪ (smiling face)
f ( x) = ax 2 + bx + c
a < 0 ⇒ maximum ⇒ ∩ (sad face)

Quadratic Inequalities Nature of Roots
a > 0 and f ( x) > 0 a > 0 and f ( x) < 0
b 2 − 4ac > 0 ⇔ intersects two different points
at x-axis
a b a b b − 4ac = 0 ⇔ touch one point at x-axis

b 2 − 4ac < 0 ⇔ does not meet x-axis
x < a or x > b a< x<b
04 Simultaneous Equations
To find the intersection point ⇒ solves simultaneous equation.
Remember: substitute linear equation into non- linear equation.
