Omar Khayyam (10th Century) conic solution for cubic equationsby Tony Foster
X3 + CX = DParabola = X2/C
Diameter of Solution circle = D/C
X3 + 9X - 25X3 + 9X = 25
Parabola = X2/9 X2/3
Diameter of Solution circle = 25/9 2.77
Start at origin (0, 0) when graphing solution circle diameter. Where the circle and the
parabola intersect draw a line perpendicular to the X-axis. The point on the X-axis is theroot for the equation.
