Under which condition will the zeroes of (x^2+bx+c) be real but not rational?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: (b^2-4c) is positive and not a perfect square
For real zeroes, the discriminant must be positive, and for irrational zeroes it must not be a perfect square. This is the key check for quadratics with rational coefficients.
