Develop a program to compute the roots of a quadratic equation by accepting the

coefficients. Print appropriate messages.

Algorithm:

Step 1: Start

Step 2: Read the values of non-zero coefficients a,b and c.

Step 3: Compute the value of discriminant (disc) which is equal to (b*b-4*a*c).

Step 4: Check if disc is equal to 0. If true, then go to Step 5. Otherwise, go to Step 6.

Step 5: Compute the roots.

root1 = (-b)/ (2*a) , root2=root1

Output the values of roots, root1 and root2. Go to Step 9.

Step 6: Check if disc is greater than zero or not. If true, then go to Step 7. Otherwise, go to

Step 8.

Step 7: Compute the real and distinct roots, root1 = (-b+sqrt(disc))/(2*a)

root2 = (-b-sqrt(disc))/(2*a)

Output the values of roots, root1 and root2. Go to Step 9.

Step 8: Compute the complex and distinct roots. Compute the real part, r_part = (-b)/(2*a)

Compute the imaginary part, i_part = sqrt(-disc)/(2*a)

Output roots as root1 = r_part + i_part

root2 = r_part – i_part

Step 9: Stop

Program

#include<stdio.h>
#include<math.h>
void main()
{
float a, b, c, root1, root2, r_part, i_part, disc;
printf("Enter the 3 non-zero coefficients\n");
scanf("%f%f%f",&a,&b,&c);
if(a==0 || b==0 || c==0)
{
printf(“Co-efficients cannot be 0\n”);
return;
}
disc=(b*b)-(4*a*c);
if(disc==0)
{
printf("Roots are equal\n");
root1=-b/(2*a);
root2=root1;
printf("root1=root2=%f",root1);
}
else if(disc>0)
{
printf("Roots are real and distinct\n");
root1=(-b+sqrt(disc))/(2*a);
root2=(-b-sqrt(disc))/(2*a);
printf("root1 = %f \t root2 = %f\n",root1,root2);
}
else
{
printf("Roots are complex\n");
r_part=-b/(2*a);
i_part=(sqrt(-disc))/(2*a);
printf("root1 = %f+i%f \n root2 = %f-i%f\n",r_part,i_part,r_part,i_part);
}
}
