Rewrite \(y = {x^2} - 6x + 11\) in the form \(y = {(x - b)^2} + c\). To get \(b\) (the number inside the bracket), halve the coefficient (number in front) of the second term in the original equation.

Some quadratics cannot be factorised. An alternative method to solve a quadratic equation is to complete the square. To solve an equation of the form \(x^2 + bx + c = 0\) consider the expression ...
