Q. Assertion :If

a > 0

, the value of the expression

b^{2} - 4 a c

will be greater than zero. Reason: The expression

b^{2} - 4 a c

represents the discriminant of a quadratic function. If

a > 0

the graph will be an upward parabola and it will cut the x-axis at two distinct points indicating real and distinct roots. For real and distinct roots, the value of the discriminant is greater than zero.
