Summary
The roots of the quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0, a 0 are given by the following
formula:
-b ± √b² - 4ac
2a
In this formula, the term b² - 4ac is called the discriminant. If b² - 4ac = 0, then the
equation has a single (repeated) root. If b² - 4ac > 0. the equation has two real roots. If b²
- 4ac < 0. the equation has two complex roots.
Instructions
Write a program that prompts the user to input the value of:
• a (the coefficient of x*)
b (the coefficient of x)
• c (the constant term)
The program then outputs the type of roots of the equation.
Furthermore, if b² - 4ac ≥ 0, the program should output the roots of the quadratic
equation.
(Hint: Use the function pow from the header file cmath to calculate the square root.
Chapter 3 explains how the function pow is used.)
Format your output with a decimal precision of 2.
