Kinetic energy is a simple concept with a simple equation that is simple to derive. Let's do it twice. Derivation using algebra alone (and assuming acceleration is constant). Start from the work-energy theorem, then add in Newton's second law of motion.

F=ma
by using the equation of motion
v^2=u^2+2as
v^2=0+2as
v^2/2
W=m×v^2/2
by the definition of kinetic energy of body
K.E.=W=1/2mv^2
