Quadratic equations always have a solution.
Sometimes the solution is complex.
Do you have a specific example in mind??

First you make sure that you can't solve it by looking at exactly what the problem is. If you understand what the problem is and you can solve it try to make it a simpler problem that you can solve then look at the differences between the problem you can solve and the problem you can't solve.
