Frequently Asked Questions
The quadratic formula is x = [-b ± √(b² - 4ac)] / (2a) for solving quadratic equations of the form ax² + bx + c = 0.
The discriminant (b² - 4ac) determines the nature of the roots: positive means two distinct real roots, zero means one real repeated root, negative means two complex roots.
Yes, as long as the equation is in the form ax² + bx + c = 0 with a ≠ 0. Enter the coefficients a, b, and c.
