In mathematics, particularly in algebra, an indeterminate equation is an equation for which there is more than one solution. For example, the equation a x + b y = c {\displaystyle ax+by=c} is a simple indeterminate equation, as is x 2 = 1 {\displaystyle x^{2}=1}. Indeterminate equations cannot be solved uniquely. In fact, in some cases it might even have infinitely many solutions. Some of the prominent examples of indeterminate equations include:

Univariate polynomial equation:

which has multiple solutions for the variable x {\displaystyle x} in the complex plane—unless it can be rewritten in the form a n n = 0 {\displaystyle a_{n}^{n}=0}.

Non-degenerate conic equation:
