In this lesson, you learned how to:

• Explain the meaning of the "zero product property."
• Find solutions to quadratic equations when one side is a product of factors and the other side is zero.

Here are the activities that helped you reach those goals:

• 8.4.1: Introducing the Zero Product Property
  • In this activity, you learned how the zero product property affects factors being multiplied together in an equation set equal to 0.
• 8.4.2: Solving Equations of Increasing Complexity Using Reasoning
  • In this activity, you implemented the zero product property to solve increasingly complex quadratic equations.
  • 8.4.2: Self Check
  • 8.4.2: Additional Resources
• 8.4.3: Applying the Zero Product Property to Solve a Real-World Projectile Problem
  • In this activity, you applied the zero product property to solve a real-world problem involving projectiles. You increased your knowledge of these types of problems that you have seen in previous lessons.
  • 8.4.3: Self Check
