The DISCRIMINANT The discriminant determines the type of solution Rational or Irrational and Real or Imaginary.

acb 42

Describe the nature of the roots using the discriminant. Then, use the quadratic equation to solve.

3. 012153 2 xx 4. 07103 2 xx

5. 018248 2 xx 6. 01362 xx

7. 0243412 2 xx 8.

Positive Perfect Square

Examples = 9, 25, 49

If the discriminate is a positive perfect square then the square root can be completely eliminated when the radical is simplified and no radical will be left over. So the solution can be written as 2 REAL and RATIONAL number.

Positive Non Square

Examples = 7, 12, 22

If the discriminate is positive but NOT a perfect square then there will still be 2 REAL solutions but the solutions will be IRRATIONAL since the radical cannot be completely eliminated.

Zero

Examples = 0

If the discriminate is zero then there will be just 1 REAL RATIONAL solution because adding or subtracting 0 is equivalent.

Negative

Examples = – 3, – 9, – 12

If the discriminate is negative then there will be 2 IMAGINARY solutions (there will be an i in the solution).

acb 42 = discriminant

Give a possible value for ‘a’ such that the solution of the quadratic would have 2 real rational solutions.
