Google's latest animated Doodle celebrates the quadratic equation, transforming its homepage into an interactive classroom. This visual tribute highlights the formula's components and solutions, ...

The mathematician hopes this method will help students avoid memorizing obtuse formulas. His secret is in generalizing two roots together instead of keeping them as separate values. Quadratic ...

When asked to solve a quadratic equation, we are really finding the roots – where the parabola cuts the x-axis, therefore when we have the graph drawn, it is very easy to do this. Looking at the graph ...

In a boon to algebra students everywhere, a professor at Carnegie Mellon University has devised a simpler and more efficient way to solve problems involving the quadratic equation. The new method was ...

Some quadratics cannot be factorised. An alternative method to solve a quadratic equation is to complete the square. To solve an equation of the form \(x^2 + bx + c ...

Everyone learns (and some readers maybe still remember) the quadratic formula. It’s a pillar of algebra and allows you to solve equations like Ax 2 +Bx+C=0. But just because you’ve used it doesn’t ...
