Negativebplusorminus
My username is from the quadratic formula, which states that the roots of the equation 
are
![\[x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/d/0/1/d01fd749d6550b117a645c357f01b3c9377e5756.png)
which, when read aloud, is "negativebplusorminus..."
Signature
Signature as of September 1st, 2011:
![\[\sqrt{a+bi}=\sqrt{\frac{a+\sqrt{a^2+b^2}}{2}}+i\sqrt{\frac{-a+\sqrt{a^2+b^2}}{2}}\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/1/1/5/115b79b994447d87745338438f7a8dc8bf2c25ad.png)
Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.
I swear on my honor that my work and my answers are my own; if I received help, credit is given.
Equation
I derived that equation myself, and I am quite proud of it. I have a similar one for the fourth roots of 
which can be derived from inputting that equation into itself.
Notable Work
