\text{Quadratic formula}


ax^2+bx+c=0\\\\\Delta=b^2-4ac\\\\x_1=(-b-\sqrt\Delta)/(2a);\ x_2=(-b+\sqrt\Delta)/(2a)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------


x^2+3x+9=0\\\\a=1;\ b=3;\ c=9\\\\\Delta=3^2-4(1)(9)=9-36=-27\\\\\sqrt\Delta=√(-27)=√((27)(-1))=√(27)\cdot√(-1)=√(9\cdot3)i=\sqrt9\cdot\sqrt3i=3\sqrt3i


x_1=(-3-3\sqrt3i)/(2(1))=-(3)/(2)-(3\sqrt3)/(2)i\\\\x_2=(-3+3\sqrt3i)/(2(1))=-(3)/(2)+(3\sqrt3)/(2)i



i=√(-1)
