Transcribed Image Text:Question 12
Prove that cos 30 = 4 cos³ 0 - 3 cos 0.
Show how the cubic equation
can be reduced to the form
242³ 722² +66x - 19-0
can be solved by this method.
(†)
42³ - 32 = k
by means of the substitutions y = x + a and z = by, for suitable values of the constants a and b.
Hence find the three roots of equation (†) expressing your answers in the form p + qcos r.
Show, by means of a counterexample, or otherwise, that not all cubic equations of the form
2³+ar²+3x+y=0
