The Nature of the Roots
The nature of the roots is determined by the values of DISCRIMINANT (D)

                  The equation has TWO         The graph cuts the x-axis
                  REAL & DISTINCT ROOTS        at TWO points


                  The equation has EQUAL       The graph touches the x-
                  OR COINCIDENT ROOTS          axis at ONE points


                  The equation has NO          The graph DOESN’T touch
                  ROOTS                        the x-axis

                  The equation has REAL
                                               The graph cuts the x-axis
                  ROOTS
Rearrange the equation, RHS
                            must be “0”




The equation has equal roots
The graphs intersects with x-axis at one point


                      Rearrange the equation, RHS
                              must be “0”



No real roots
The graphs doesn’t intersect with x-axis
