    This document summarizes Cardano's method for solving a cubic equation with real coefficients. It provides the steps to transform the original cubic equation into an equivalent depressed cubic equation, and then finds the three cube roots to solve for the roots of the original cubic equation. The worked example finds the three real roots of the cubic equation x^3 + (-25)x^2 + 118x - 170 = 0.

    Solution of any cubic equation with real coefficients using Cardano's Method

    Ax3+BX2+CX+D=0
    Enter the coefficients below:
    A= 2
    B= -25
    C= 118
    D= -170

    This yields x3+EX2+FX+G=0

    E = B/A -12.5
    F = C/A 59
    G = D/A -85

    The Depressed Cubic: y3 + by = c


    x = y - E/3
    b = F - E2/3 6.9166666667

    c = FE/3 - 2E3/27 -G -16.1574074074

    c2 + 4b3/27 310.0833333333

    y3 + by = c
    (Q + P)3 - 3QP(Q + P) = Q3 + P3
    y=Q+P
    P = -b/(3Q)
    Q3 + P3 = c
    Q6 - cQ3 - b3/27 = 0
    Q3 = ( c + sqrt( c2 + 4b3/27) )/2 = Rexp(i*Phi)

    R = abs((c + sqrt(c2 + 4b3/27))/2) if c2 + 4b3/27 > 0 0.7258879014

    R = sqrt(-b3/27) if c2 + 4b3/27 < 0


    Phi = 0, if c2 + 4b3/27 > 0 and c + sqrt(c2 + 4b3/27) > 0 0

    Phi = PI, if c2 + 4b3/27 > 0 and c + sqrt(c2 + 4b3/27) < 0


    cos(Phi) = c/(2R) if c2 + 4b3/27 < 0
    Phi needs to be a First or Second Quadrant Angle consistent with a non negative imaginary part.
    Solve for Q : The three cube roots

    Q0 = R^(1/3)cos(Phi/3)+iR^(1/3)sin(Phi/3) 0.8987175 +i
    Q1 = R^(1/3)cos((Phi+2PI)/3)+iR^(1/3)sin((Phi+2PI)/3) -0.4493587 +i
    Q2 = R^(1/3)cos((Phi+4PI)/3)+iR^(1/3)sin((Phi+4PI)/3) -0.4493587 +i

    P0 = -b/(3R^(1/3))( cos(Phi/3) - isin(Phi/3) ) -2.5653841 +i


    P1 = -b/(3R^(1/3))( cos((Phi+2PI)/3) - isin((Phi+2PI)/3) ) 1.2826921 +i
    P2 = -b/(3R^(1/3))( cos((Phi+4PI)/3) - isin((Phi+4PI)/3) ) 1.2826921 +i

    y0 = Q0 + P0 -1.6666667 +i
    y1 = Q1 + P1 0.8333333 +i
    y2 = Q2 + P2 0.8333333 +i

    x0 = y0 - E/3 2.5000000 +i
    x1 = y1 - E/3 5.0000000 +i
    x2 = y2 - E/3 5.0000000 +i

    Check:
    Ax03+BX02+CX0+D= 0.0000000 +i
    Ax13+BX12+CX1+D= 0.0000000 +i
    Ax23+BX22+CX2+D= 0.0000000 +i
