Hello Thanasis, don't really know if this belongs here...
In general the equation of a (non-rational) bezier segment is b(t) = \sum_{i=0}^n b_i \cdot B_i^n( t ), b_i your n+1 control points, B_i^n the Bernstein-Polynomials of degree n, t \in [0,1]. You can search wikipedia for the properties of bernstein polynomials. They are defined as: b_k^n(t) := \frac{n!}{k! (n-k)!} t^k (1-t)^{(n-k)}, t\in R, k=0, ..., n. Just put this all together for n=2 and you should be fine. Of course you can also search the web for the algorithm of de Casteljau or an algorithm following the bezier-horner-schema.
