– 4ac is called discriminant of the quadratic equation. ax
usually denoted by D.
(i) If D > 0, then the quadratic equation has two real unequal (distinct) roots.
Notes
(ii) If D = 0, then the quadratic equation has two equal (coincident) roots.
(iii) If D < 0, then the quadratic equation has no real root.
