​Getting a refreshing geometrical bent to the algebraic problem of finding quadratic roots provides fertile ground for upper secondary students. This
blog investigates geometric methods that were developed by the 17th century French philosopher, mathematician and Scientist Rene Descartes and
the 19th century philosopher, essayist and mathematician Thomas Carlyle. This is great material for classroom investigations or project work.
