Solve ax² + bx + c = 0 quadratic equations to find real or complex roots, discriminant, and vertex.
Result
Solved using the standard quadratic formula x = (-b ± √D) / 2a.
Save as
x = [-b ± √(b² - 4ac)] / (2a) | Discriminant D = b² - 4ac
a = 1, b = -5, c = 6 (x² - 5x + 6 = 0).
Roots: x₁ = 3.00, x₂ = 2.00 | Discriminant: D = 1 (Two real roots).

Open calculatorIf D > 0, the equation has two distinct real roots. If D = 0, there is one repeated real root. If D < 0, there are two complex conjugate roots (involving imaginary unit i).
If a = 0, the x² term disappears, converting the equation into a linear equation (bx + c = 0) rather than a quadratic parabola.
