Simply the most useless maths topic ever. i dont think ill ever be at the shops, looking to buy $2 of bananas and for some reason need to calculate where the bloody parabola is meant to go on the x and y axis. useless. id rather stick my nuts under Urban Dictionary

To divide something into four equal parts. Urban Dictionary

Really fucking stupid Urban Dictionary

The neatest thing in math ever !!!! you see by using quadratics to solve equations, your avoiding the guess and check method!!!! quadratics are set to zero and have two answers!!!! Urban Dictionary

The Schrödinger's Cat of equations. Nobody really knows what it is or what it means. The easiest way to commit an algebraic atrocity. Urban Dictionary

X = -b plus or minus the square root of (b^2 - 4ac) all divided by 2a. Used for quadratic equations where you can't factor. the equation is ax^2 + bx + c. Urban Dictionary

The best method of solving a quadratic. When your equation is in the standard form of ax² + bx + c = 0, x = (-b ± √b² - 4ac) / 2a. It is far superior to both factoring and completing the square. The equation may look difficult, but all you have to do is plug in the coefficients and simplify! Urban Dictionary

The strategic placement of 2 penises to where it appears that one is the square root of the other. Urban Dictionary

A handy formula easily memorized by repetition. It is used in many instances, such as trying to find the roots of an equation, or solving an equation that will not factor with integers. To solve using the Quadratic Formula: In any equation ax^2+bx+c, The roots can be found by substituting into: -b(+,-)sqrt(b^2-4ac)/2a OR Negative "B" plus or minus the square root of "B" squared minus 4(a)(c), all divided by 2(a). Urban Dictionary

A mildly long but sensible and useful equation. Typically used for solving for the two, one, or zero real values of X in a quadratic equation. Urban Dictionary
