Lesson Plan in Mathematics 9
I. OBJECTIVES
At the end of the lesson, the students are expected to:
a. describe the relationship between the coefficients and the roots of a
quadratic equation
b. determine the sum and the product of the roots of a quadratic
equation; and
c. appreciate the sum and product of the roots of a quadratic equation
Good job!
How did you get the results? What methods (The students answer the question.)
and mathematical principles did you apply? - by applying the rules in adding and multiplying
numbers.
Awesome!
Group 1:
(The students start doing their task.)
1. What are the values of a, b and c in this
equation? x 2+ 7 x +12=0
a = ____ b = ____ c = ____
2. Determine the roots of the quadratic
equation using any method.
x 1 = ____ x 2 = ____
3. What is the sum of the roots?
4. What is the product of the roots?
Group 2:
1. What are the values of a, b and c in this
equation? 2 x 2−3 x−20=0
a = ____ b = ____ c = ____
2. Determine the roots of the quadratic
equation using any method.
x 1 = ____ x 2 = ____
3. What is the sum of the roots?
4. What is the product of the roots?
Group 3:
1. What are the values of a, b and c in this
equation? x 2+ 7 x +6=0
a = ____ b = ____ c = ____
2. Determine the roots of the quadratic
equation using any method.
x 1 = ____ x 2 = ____
3. What is the sum of the roots?
4. What is the product of the roots?
B. Analysis
The teacher gathers the work of the
students and checks if each group got the
correct answer.
(Group 1 representative presents their work.)
Let’s begin with group 1.
1. What are the values of a, b and c in this
equation? x 2+ 7 x +12=0?
a = 1 b = 7 c = 12
2. Determine the roots of the quadratic
equation using any method.
x 1 = -4 x 2 = -3
3. What is the sum of the roots?
x 1 + x 2 = (-4) + (-3) = -7
4. What is the product of the roots?
( x1 ) ( x2 ) = ( -4 ) ( -3 ) = 12
C. Abstraction
(One student answers..)
From the activity you had a while ago,
what do you think is our topic for today? Our topic for today is about the sum and
product of the roots of a quadratic equation.
That is correct!
Very good!
ax2 + bx + c = 0
(Here a, b and c are real and rational
numbers)
D. Application
THIS IS MY SUM AND THIS IS MY
PRODUCT. WHO AM I?
Use the values of a, b and c of each of
the following quadratic equations in
determining the sum and the product of its
roots. Verify your answers by obtaining the
(Two students come in front and solve the
roots of the equation.
problems on the board.)
1. x 2+ 4 x +3=0
Roots: _____ Sum: _____ Product: _____
2. 3 x 2−15 x+18=0
Roots: _____ Sum: _____ Product: _____
Yes, Ma’am!
Good work!
III. EVALUATION
Complete the following table.
Quadratic Equation Sum of Roots Product of Roots
2
3 x −10 x−8=0
4 x2 +8 x +3=0
IV. ASSIGNMENT
Direction: Find the sum and the product of the roots of a quadratic equation.
A rectangular lot in Balicaocao is to be used as a quarantine facility for
Patients Under Investigation (PUIs). It has an area of 450 m2 and a perimeter of
90 m. Find its dimensions. (Relate the measures to the sum and product of the
quadratic equation.)
