$a_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$a_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{2224}=\sqrt{16*139}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{139}=4\sqrt{139}$
$a_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)-4\sqrt{139}}{2*2}=\frac{0-4\sqrt{139}}{4} =-\frac{4\sqrt{139}}{4} =-\sqrt{139} $
$a_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)+4\sqrt{139}}{2*2}=\frac{0+4\sqrt{139}}{4} =\frac{4\sqrt{139}}{4} =\sqrt{139} $
