From Cubics to Complex Numbers

Описание к видео From Cubics to Complex Numbers

We all know the formula for solving quadratics, but there is also a formula for solving cubics. It's a pretty piece of mathematics, and its discovery, in the sixteenth century, is thought by many to be the start of modern mathematics, because it sowed the seed that led to complex numbers. In this video I show how to solve cubic equations, and follow the story of the development of complex numbers.
