[[Image:Polynomialdeg2.svg|thumb|right|A quadratic polynomial with two [[real number|real]] [[root of a polynomial|roots]] (crossings of the ''x'' axis) and hence no [[complex number|complex]] roots. Some other quadratic polynomials have their [[minimum]] above the ''x'' axis, in which case there are no real roots and two complex roots.]]
