Question

what is thedistinct​ root

Answer 1

I think it's distinct.
The discriminant Δ The two solutions might be the same or different (distinct), real numbers or not real numbers. The nature of the roots of the equation (a root is another word for solution) clearly depends on the value of the expression under the square root sign, .

I hope this helps you.

Answer 2

Distinct root in mathematics:

The quadratic equation has distinct roots (i.e) all the roots of the equation are not equal to one another..

For example, the equation x^2 - 2^2 = 0 ==> (x-2)(x+2) = 0

has two distinct roots, which are 2 and -2. 

Whereas the equation x^2 - 2x + 1 = 0 ==> (x-1)(x-1) = 0 

has two real roots,but which are equal (-1,-1)
