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 ...

\(3x^2 = 48\) is an example of a quadratic equation that can be solved simply. If \((x + 1)(x + 2) = 0\), then \(x + 1 = 0\) or \(x + 2 = 0\), meaning \(x = -1\) or ...

A mathematician at Carnegie Mellon University has developed an easier way to solve quadratic equations. The mathematician hopes this method will help students avoid memorizing obtuse formulas. His ...

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 ...

On November 12, 2025, Google is highlighting one of the most famous math formulas in the world. Its doodle in India features the quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0. The doodle shows how this simple ...

Google is celebrating the quadratic equation with a special Doodle today, November 12. The Doodle highlights one of mathematics’ most recognised and widely applied formulas, bringing an everyday ...
