You can use Inset and Row like this:

a = 0.5; b = 1; c = 6; d = 2; e = 3; f = -30;
ContourPlot[{a x^2 + b x*y + c y^2 + d x + e y - 30 == 0}, {x, -12, 
  10}, {y, -8, 8}, ContourStyle -> {Red, Thick}, Axes -> True, 
 AxesLabel -> {x, y}, Frame -> False, ImageSize -> {550, 400}, 
 Epilog -> Inset[
     Style[Row[{HoldForm[b^2-4 a c]," = ",b^2-4 a c}],Large],
  {5, 5}]]
