Solving Radical Equations

Introduction to Solving Radical Equations

A radical equation is an equation in which the variable is contained inside a radical expression (e.g., square root). The formula for solving radical equations is derived from the quadratic formula, which provides solutions for equations of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0.

Parameter usage:

• a = coefficient of x^2
• b = coefficient of x
• c = constant term

Output:

• The solutions to the quadratic equation, represented as an array of real roots or a single real root

Data validation

The parameter 'a' should be non-zero to define a quadratic equation. The discriminant should not be negative for real solutions.

Summary

This calculator provides the real roots of a quadratic equation in the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0. It can handle both single and double real root cases.
