  • 1 answers

Gaurav Seth 4 years, 2 months ago

(b2 – 4ac) is called the discriminant of the quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0. Its value determines the nature of roots 

It is called the Discriminant, because it can "discriminate" between the possible types of answer: when b2 − 4ac is positive, we get two Real solutions. when it is zero we get just ONE real solution (both answers are the same) when it is negative we get a pair of Complex solutions.
