Quadratic Equations Class 11 Notes are available here for students. The notes are very helpful to have a quick revision before exams. Class 11 Maths Chapter 5 quadratic equations include a quadratic formula to find the solution of the given equation.
Consider the quadratic equation:
The solution of above quadratic equation will be in the form of complex numbers given by:
\(\begin{array}{l}x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}=\frac{-b\pm i\sqrt{4ac-b^{2}}}{2a}\end{array} \) |
Important Notes:
- A polynomial equation has at least one root
- A polynomial equation of degree n has n roots
- The values of a variable, that satisfy the given equation are called roots of a quadratic equation
- The solution to quadratic equations can also be calculated using the factorisation method
- If α and β are the roots of a quadratic equation, then the equation is x2 – (α + β) x + αβ = 0
- The nature of roots depends on the discriminant (D) of the quadratic equation
- If D > 0, roots are real and distinct (unequal)
- If D = 0, roots are real and equal (coincident)
- If D < 0, roots are imaginary and unequal
