If the zeroes of ax2+bx+c are equal then
c & a have opposite signs
c & b have opposite signs
a&b have opposite signs
a & c have same signs
when roots are equal and say = k , then equation is of the form ±(x±k)2 from this we can see that a and c will always have same sign.
If the zeroes of x2+ax+b have opposite signs but equal magnitude, then
