</div>
<div data-if="B !== 0">
<p>We complete the square by taking half of the coefficient of our <code>x</code> term, squaring it, and adding it to both sides of the equation. The coefficient of our <code>x</code> term is <code><var>decimalFraction( B, 1, 1 )</var></code>, so half of it would be <code><var>decimalFraction( B / 2, 1, 1 )</var></code>, and squaring it gives us <code>\color{blue}{<var>decimalFraction( pow( B / 2, 2 ), 1, 1 )</var>}</code>.</p>

</div>
<div data-if="B !== 0">
<p>We can now rewrite the left side of the equation as a squared term.</p>
<p><code>( x + <var>decimalFraction( B / 2, 1, 1 )</var> )^2 = <var>decimalFraction( C * -1 + pow( B / 2, 2 ), 1, 1 )</var></code></p>
</div>
</div>
<div data-else="" data-unwrap="">
<p>Note that the left side of the equation is already a perfect square trinomial. The coefficient of our <code>x</code> term is <code><var>decimalFraction( B, 1, 1 )</var></code>, half of it is <code><var>decimalFraction( B / 2, 1, 1 )</var></code>, and squaring it gives us <code>\color{blue}{<var>decimalFraction( pow( B / 2, 2 ), 1, 1 )</var>}</code>, our constant term.</p>
<div>
<p>Thus, we can rewrite the left side of the equation as a squared term.</p>
<p><code>( x + <var>decimalFraction( B / 2, 1, 1 )</var> )^2 = <var>decimalFraction( C * -1 + pow( B / 2, 2 ), 1, 1 )</var></code></p>
