Explanation:
The "Fallunterscheidung" mentioned here relates to the discriminant. In a quadratic equation: ax2 + bx + c, the discriminant (b2 - 4ac) determines if we have real roots, double roots, or maginary roots. If it is > 0, then we have two distinct roots, if = 0, then we have a degenerate root, if negative, then we have imaginary roots.
