Yes. Every step is shown for free — no account, no paywall, no daily limit. This is our core differentiator from Symbolab and Mathway which now require paid subscriptions to see full steps.

Currently: algebra (linear equations, quadratic formula, systems of equations, inequalities), geometry (triangles, circles, rectangles, Pythagorean theorem), trigonometry (sin/cos/tan, right triangle solver, law of cosines), and statistics (mean, median, mode, standard deviation, range). More topics are being added.

The quadratic formula solves ax² + bx + c = 0. The formula is x = (-b ± √(b²-4ac)) / (2a). The discriminant (b²-4ac) tells you the number of solutions: positive = two real solutions, zero = one solution, negative = no real solutions (complex).

This calculator uses the elimination method — multiply equations to make one variable's coefficients cancel, then solve for the remaining variable. The steps show each multiplication and substitution so you can follow along.

Yes, but use it to understand the steps, not just copy answers. Each step includes a plain-English explanation of the rule being applied — this is what helps math actually make sense over time.
