3. FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions):

Q: What are the roots of a quadratic equation? A: The roots of a quadratic equation are the values of 𝑥x that satisfy the equation, making the equation true. They represent the points where the quadratic equation intersects the x-axis.
Q: What does the discriminant represent in the quadratic formula? A: The discriminant, 𝑏²−4𝑎c, determines the nature of the roots of the quadratic equation. If the discriminant is positive, the equation has two distinct real roots. If it’s zero, the equation has a repeated real root. If it’s negative, the equation has complex roots.
Q: Can I use this calculator for quadratic equations with complex coefficients? A: No, this calculator is designed for quadratic equations with real coefficients. For equations with complex coefficients, you would need to use a different method or calculator capable of handling complex numbers.
