The Discriminant tells about the nature of the roots of quadratic equation. In quadratic equation formula, we have \( b^2 - 4ac \) under root, this is discriminant of quadratic equations.
There are three cases for discriminant:
if \( b^2 - 4ac = 0 \), then the roots of quadratic equations are real and equal.
if \( b^2 - 4ac > 0 \), then the roots are real but not equal
if \( b^2 - 4ac < 0 \), then the roots are not equal and are imaginary.
