Nature Of The Zeros Of A Quadratic Function

The quantity b2_4ac that appears under the radical sign in the quadratic formula is called the discriminant.It is also named because it discriminates between quadratic functions that have real zeros and those that do not have.Evaluating the discriminant will determine whether the quadratic function has real zeros or not.

The zeros of the quadratic function f(x)=ax2+bx+c can be expressed in the form

S1= -b+square root of D over 2a and S2= -b-square root of D over 2a, where D=b24ac....

hope it helps... :p

sorry for the square root! i know it looks like a table or something...
