    Discriminant Foldable

    The document discusses the discriminant Δ of a quadratic equation and its relationship to the nature of the roots. It states that if Δ is greater than 0, there are two real unequal roots. If Δ is equal to 0, there is one real root or two equal roots. If Δ is less than 0, there are no real roots. It also notes that if Δ is a perfect square, the roots are rational, and if Δ is not a perfect square, the roots are irrational.
