Quadratic equations have many applications in
daily life because they are crucial to human
survival. Quadratic equations must be used directly
or indirectly in every field that involves calculating
speed, area, or profit.
Construction workers use quadratic equations to
calculate the area before starting a project.

1. The roots of the quadratic equation: x = (-b ± √D)/2a, where D = b 2 – 4ac

2. Nature of roots:
D > 0, roots are real and distinct (unequal)
D = 0, roots are real and equal (coincident)
D < 0, roots are imaginary and unequal
3. The roots (α + iβ), (α – iβ) are the conjugate pair of each other.
4. Sum and product of roots: If α and β are the roots of a quadratic equation,
then
S = α+β= -b/a = -coefficient of x/coefficient of x2
P = αβ = c/a = constant term/coefficient of x2
5. Quadratic equation in the form of roots: x 2 – (α + β)x + (αβ) =
0
6. The quadratic equations a1x2 + b1x + c1 = 0 and a2x2 + b2x +
c2 = 0 have;
•One common root if (b1c2 – b2c1)/(c1a2 – c2a1) = (c1a2 –
c2a1)/(a1b2 – a2b1)
•Both roots common if a1/a2 = b1/b2 = c1/c2
7. In quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0 or [(x + b/2a)2 – D/4a2]
=0
•If a > 0, minimum value = 4ac – b 2/4a at x = -b/2a.
•If a < 0, maximum value 4ac – b2/4a at x= -b/2a.
8. If α, β, γ are roots of cubic equation ax3 + bx2 + cx
+ d = 0, then α + β + γ = -b/a, αβ + βγ + λα = c/a, and
αβγ = -d/a
9. A quadratic equation becomes an identity (a, b, c =
0) if the equation is satisfied by more than two
numbers, i.e. having more than two roots or solutions
either real or complex.
Proof of Quadratic Formula
Consider an arbitrary quadratic equation: ax2 + bx + c = 0, a ≠ 0
To determine the roots of this equation, we proceed as follows:
ax2 + bx = -c ⇒ x2 + bx/a = -c/a
Now, we express the left-hand side as a perfect square, by introducing a new term
(b/2a)2 on both sides:
x2+ bx/a + (b/2a)2 = -c/a + (b/2a)2
The left-hand side is now a perfect square:
(x + b/2a)2 = -c/a + b2/4a2 ⇒ (x + b/2a)2 = (b2 - 4ac)/4a2
This is good for us, because now we can take square roots to obtain:
x + b/2a = ±√(b2 - 4ac)/2a
x = (-b ± √(b2 - 4ac))/2a
Thus, by completing the squares, we were able to isolate x and obtain the two roots of the
equation.
