Hi.

Look, I don't understand the formula you wrote, I should look at it a little better, but I still don't understand why you say that the equation you got has the negative delta. I don't think so. delta = b^2-4*a*c, where b,a and c have their mark. In your case, it seems like there's a negative sign, so the delta is positive. . .

If the section is symmetrical, as it seems to be, you don't need all these calculations
