University of New South Wales Honorary Professor Norman Wildberger has unveiled a potentially game-changing mathematical theory.

For centuries, one of algebra’s oldest puzzles has remained unsolved—how to find exact answers for higher-degree polynomials, where the variable is raised to the fifth power or more. Mathematicians have long believed that a general solution for these equations in terms of square or cube roots,

New research details an intriguing new way to solve "unsolvable" algebra problems that go beyond the fourth degree – something that has generally been deemed impossible using traditional methods for two centuries,
