Remember, when they are talking about the "nature" of the roots, they mean whether there is one real root, two real roots or no real roots. The discriminant helps you determine exactly this when the function is in standard form. You should certainly post your queries about the homework on the blog. Some of you may be wondering why they are using the word "real" to describe the roots every time. Do you remember that we learned about the Real numbers? Think about it and we can discuss this further in class.

Also, don't forget that your test on quadratics is on Tuesday, 7th February, 2012.
