⁦This workshop follows⁩ '⁦signs of products⁩'. ⁦Here a quadratic such as x٢ − ٤ is first split into factors⁩: (x − ٢)(x + ٢).

⁦A product of two factors is negative when the factors have opposite signs⁩. ⁦The zeros of the factors cut the line into gaps; in each gap write the sign of each factor, and get the sign of the product from the rule of signs⁩.

⁦A square is never negative⁩: (x − ١)٢ ≥ ٠. ⁦So in (x − ١)٢ > ٠ only the one point x = ١ fails⁩.

⁦Sometimes an equation has another letter in it, such as a in x٢ + ax + ١ = ٠⁩. The المميز ⁦Δ = a٢ − ٤ tells you how many roots there are⁩. ⁦Two roots means Δ > ٠, which is itself a quadratic inequality, but now in the letter a⁩.

⁦Tap the line to get a piece, choose its shape with the buttons, and tap a dot to make it filled or hollow⁩. ⁦Under the line the answer is written as an inequality and in interval notation⁩.
