Which Method is Best for Solving the Quadratic?

Choose the most appropriate method to solve the quadratic equation.

• Square Root Method

• Factoring

• Complete the Square

• Quadratic Formula

Answer explanation

The best method is factoring, but since 'a' is 1 and 'b' is even, this would be a good candidate for complete the square.
