In algebra, a quadratic function, a quadratic polynomial, a polynomial of degree 2, or simply a quadratic, is a polynomial function in one or more variables in which the highest-degree term is of the second degree.
The quadratic formula, , is used in algebra to solve quadratic equations (polynomial equations of the second degree). The general form of a quadratic equation is , where x represents a variable, and a, b, and c are constants, with . A quadratic equation has two solutions, called roots. One simple way to solve quadratic equations is to set each factor equal to zero and then solve for each factor. However, when the quadratic equation is difficult to solve, the quadratic formula is used to find the solutions. Remember that the symbol Â± indicates that both and are solutions to the quadratic equation.
