C++ Program to Find Roots of Quadratic Equation

Program

#include<iostream>
#include<math.h> //to calculate square root
 
using namespace std;
 
int main()
{
	float root1,root2,a,b,c,d,imaginaryPart,realPart;
	cout<<"Quadratic Equation is ax^2+bx+c=0";
	cout<<"\nEnter values of a,b and c:";
	cin>>a>>b>>c;
	
	d=(b*b)-(4*a*c);
	
	if(d>0)
	{
		cout<<"\nTwo real and distinct roots";
		root1=(-b+sqrt(d))/(2*a);
		root2=(-b-sqrt(d))/(2*a);
		cout<<"\nRoots are "<<root1<<" and "<<root2;
	}
	else if(d==0)
		{
			cout<<"\nTwo real and equal roots";
			root1=root2=-b/(2*a);
			cout<<"\nRoots are "<<root1<<" and "<<root2;
		}
		else{
			cout<<"\nRoots are complex and imaginary";
			realPart = -b/(2*a);
            imaginaryPart = sqrt(-d)/(2*a);
        	cout<<"\nRoots are "<<realPart<<"+"<<imaginaryPart<<"i and "<<realPart<<"-"<<imaginaryPart<<"i";
		}
 
	return 0;
}

Output

Quadratic Equation is ax^2+bx+c=0
Enter values of a,b and c:3
4
1

Two real and distinct roots
Roots are -0.333333 and -1
