Nature of the roots :-
Where D = b² - 4ac
• D > 0 (Two Distinct real roots)
• D = 0 (Two equal and real roots)
• D < 0 (No real roots)

Quadratic formula
In elementary algebra, the quadratic formula is a formula that provides the solution(s) to a quadratic equation. There are other ways of solving a quadratic equation instead of using the quadratic formula, such as factoring (direct factoring, grouping, AC method), completing the square, graphing and others.
Given a general quadratic equation of the form
Each of these two solutions is also called a root (or zero) of the quadratic equation. Geometrically, these roots represent the x-values at which any parabola, explicitly given as y = ax2 + bx + c, crosses the x-axis.[3]
As well as being a formula that yields the zeros of any parabola, the quadratic formula can also be used to identify the axis of symmetry of the parabola,[4] and the number of real zeros the quadratic equation contains.
