Example1. Find the discriminant of Quadratic Equation `x^2-5x+6=0` and discuss the nature of its roots
Solution: `x^2-5x+6=0`
`=>x^2-5x+6 = 0`
Comparing the given equation with the standard quadratic equation `ax^2+bx+c=0,`
we get, `a=1, b=-5, c=6.`
`:. Delta=b^2-4ac`
`=(-5)^2-4 (1) (6)`
`=25-24`
`=1`
