Quadratic Equations : Contents

1. Standard form of a quad. Equations: ax² + bx + c = 0 (a ≠ 0)2. Solution of the quadratic equations only real roots by

(a) Factorization (b) Completing the square (c) Quadratic formula

3. Relationship between discriminant and nature of roots.

if D > 0 => Real & Distinct Roots if D = 0 => Real & Equal Roots if D < 0 => No Real Roots

4. Problems related to day to day activities

Learning Objective: To learn the following facts

1. A second degree Equation of the form ax² + bx + c = 0 where a, b, c are real numbers and a ≠ 0 are called quadratic eqn.

2. If ax² + bx + c = 0 equivalent to (x – a) (x – b) = 0 then x = a and x = b is a solution.

3. If ax² + bx + c = 0 has a & b as roots of eqn then sum of roots = – b/a. Product of roots = c/a.

4. (b² – 4ac) is called the discriminant of the eqn and

Key Term

1. Roots of an eqn. 2. Discriminant 3. Real & Non Real Roots

4. Quadratic Formula
