  2. Vieta's formulas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vieta's_formulas

    Vieta's formulas are frequently used with polynomials with coefficients in any integral domain R.Then, the quotients / belong to the field of fractions of R (and possibly are in R itself if happens to be invertible in R) and the roots are taken in an algebraically closed extension.

  3. Viète's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viète's_formula

    The formula can be derived as a telescoping product of either the areas or perimeters of nested polygons converging to a circle. Alternatively, repeated use of the half-angle formula from trigonometry leads to a generalized formula, discovered by Leonhard Euler, that has Viète's formula as a special case. Many similar formulas involving nested ...

  4. Elementary symmetric polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_symmetric...

    The characteristic polynomial of a square matrix is an example of application of Vieta's formulas. The roots of this polynomial are the eigenvalues of the matrix . When we substitute these eigenvalues into the elementary symmetric polynomials, we obtain – up to their sign – the coefficients of the characteristic polynomial, which are ...

    [6]: 202–207 If one is given a quadratic equation in the form x 2 + bx + c = 0, the sought factorization has the form (x + q)(x + s), and one has to find two numbers q and s that add up to b and whose product is c (this is sometimes called "Vieta's rule" [7] and is related to Vieta's formulas). As an example, x 2 + 5x + 6 factors as (x + 3)(x ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_equation

    Vieta's substitution is a method introduced by François Viète (Vieta is his Latin name) in a text published posthumously in 1615, which provides directly the second formula of § Cardano's method, and avoids the problem of computing two different cube roots. [35]

  9. Vieta jumping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vieta_jumping

    By applying Vieta's Formulas, (x, qx − y) is a lattice point on the lower branch of H. Let y ′ = qx − y. From the equation for H, one sees that 1 + x y ′ > 0. Since x > 0, it follows that y ′ ≥ 0. Hence the point (x, y ′) is in the first quadrant. By reflection, the point (y ′, x) is also a point in the first quadrant on H.
