Which innovation allowed Islamic mathematicians during the medieval period to generally solve quadratic equations?

💡 Explanation

Islamic mathematicians developed algebraic methods for quadratic solutions by geometrically deriving area completions, because the solutions were visualized by manipulating geometric figures. Therefore solving quadratic equations generally resulted rather than relying on calculus, mechanical calculation, or probabilistic range estimation which emerged much later or depended on different principles.
