quadratic
Squared variable equation
Quadratic describes mathematical expressions or equations involving the second power of a variable.
A quadratic equation takes the form ax² + bx + c = 0, where the highest exponent is 2.
The quadratic formula provides solutions to such equations.
Quadratic functions produce parabolas when graphed: The ball's trajectory followed a quadratic curve.
