How does the Cubic Equation Calculator work?
Free Cubic Equation Calculator - Solves for cubic equations in the form ax3 + bx2 + cx + d = 0 using the following methods:
1) Solve the long way for all 3 roots and the discriminant Δ
2) Rational Root Theorem (Rational Zero Theorem) to solve for real roots followed by the synthetic div/quadratic method for the other imaginary roots if applicable.
This calculator has 5 inputs.
What 4 formulas are used for the Cubic Equation Calculator?
Δ = 4b3d - b2c2 + 4ac3 - 18abcd + 27a2d2
