This math topic focuses on quadratic equations, specifically completing the square technique with a coefficient (denoted as N) to convert quadratic equations to vertex form. This involves manipulating the equations to make perfect square trinomials and then rewriting them in vertex form, noting the impact of the leading coefficient. The problems provide polynomial expressions, and students are required to select the correct vertex form from multiple choices, demonstrating understanding of completing the square in varying contexts. This is part of a broader unit aimed at introducing quadratic equations and vertex forms.
