Help me to see the difference.
REI.4b (last part)
Cluster: Solve quadratic equations in one variable.
Recognize when the quadratic formula gives complex solutions and write them as a ± bi for real numbers a and b.
This seems to tell me that they need to understand the discriminant and then write the solution as a complex number.
CN.7
Solve quadratic equations with real coefficients that have complex solutions.
This seems to tell me that they are solving quadratic equations and then writing the solutions as complex numbers.
It seems to me that REI.4b completely encompasses CN.7. What am I missing?
Thanks,
Dave
