CAS Syntax
- SolveCubic[ <Cubic Polynomial> ]
- Solves a given cubic polynomial and returns a list of all solutions.
- Example:
SolveCubic[x³ - 1]yields { 1, -\frac{1}{2} + i \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} , -\frac{1}{2} - i \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} } .
Note:
You will often need to simplify your answers manually, eg
SolveCubic[x³ + x² + x + 1].
