Evolución histórica de las ecuaciones cuadráticas y cúbicas.

Abstract

The evolution of quadratic and cubic equations has been crucial in the development of mathematics. From ancient geometric solutions to modern algebraic notation, these equations have influenced various disciplines, showing their relevance in mathematical theory and practical applications. This research analyses the historical evolution of quadratic and cubic equations using a descriptive and holistic approach. Key developments from ancient times to the modern period were explored. The contributions of prominent mathematicians and the practical applications of these equations in various disciplines are examined. The aim is to demonstrate how knowledge of the historical evolution of these equations can enrich students' and professionals' learning and understanding of mathematics. Research methods such as logical history and bibliography were employed. It was concluded that the evolution of quadratic and cubic equations reflects mathematical progress and has had a significant impact on the development of science, technology, and especially education.
