Types of Quadratic Equations Roots
If we look at how to find a solution of quadratic equations using a formula, the types of roots will depend on b2 - 4ac. Therefore, b2 - 4ac is called discriminant or differentiator and is usually abbreviated to D where D = b2- 4ac.Here are some possible root types of quadratic equations, such as:
- If D > 0 but not pure square, the quadrate equation has two different roots;
- If D = 0, then the quadratic equation has two rill roots or often called twin roots;
- If D < 0, then the quadratic equation has no rill root (imaginary root);
- If D is pure square, then the quadratic equation has different rational roots.
Example:
Investigate the type of roots from x2 + 4x + 4 = 0 without searching for the root first!
Answer:
From x2 + 4x + 4 = 0, obtained:
a = 1
b = 4
c = 4
D = b2 - 4ac
D = 42 - 4(1)(4)
D = 16 - 16
D = 0
Since D = 0, then x2 + 4x + 4 = 0 has the same or twin roots.
