Frequently asked questions
Questions about Quadratic Formula Calculator
Can coefficient a be zero?
No. If a is zero, the equation is not quadratic.
Does the calculator support complex roots?
Yes. When the discriminant is negative, the two roots are displayed using i.
What is the discriminant?
The discriminant is b² - 4ac. Its sign determines whether a quadratic has two real roots, one repeated real root, or two complex roots.
