Then evaluate the character of the roots based on the value of according to the following criteria (which presume rational coefficients on your quadratic):
Two real and unequal roots. If is a perfect square, then both roots are rational. Otherwise the two roots are a conjugate pair of irrational roots of the form where is rational and is irrational.
One real root with a multiplicity of two. That is to say that the trinomial is a perfect square and has two identical factors.
A conjugate pair of complex roots of the form where is the imaginary number defined by
