The discriminant (Δ = b² - 4ac) of a quadratic equation determines the nature and number of roots. It tells whether solutions are real, complex, or repeated.

ସୂତ୍ର

Δ = b² - 4ac; if Δ > 0: two real roots, Δ = 0: one repeated root, Δ < 0: complex roots

  1. 1Enter coefficients a, b, c from ax² + bx + c = 0
  2. 2Calculate b² - 4ac
  3. 3Interpret the sign and value

ସମାଧାନ ହୋଇଥିବା ଉଦାହରଣ

ଇନପୁଟ୍
x² - 5x + 6 = 0
ଫଳ
Δ = 1 (two distinct real roots)
25 - 24 = 1

ଏଡ଼ାଇବା ଯୋଗ୍ୟ ସାଧାରଣ ଭୁଲ

  • Sign errors in b or c
  • Forgetting the 4ac term
