- understand that quadratic sequences are characterized by a constant second difference between consecutive terms,
- identify a quadratic sequence,
- find the general formula for the term of a quadratic sequence.
Prerequisites
Students should already be familiar with
- linear sequences.
Exclusions
Students will not cover
- other types of sequences.
