Understanding the Discriminant

Positive discriminant means two real roots, zero means one real root (repeated), negative means complex roots.

Standard Form

Enter coefficients for the equation ax² + bx + c = 0, where a, b, and c are real numbers and a ≠ 0 for a quadratic equation.

Complex Numbers

When the discriminant is negative, roots are displayed in the form a ± bi, where i is the imaginary unit.
