Math is a language. And like any language, teachers need to help students translate the language into terms they understand. “This idea is to learn a language you have to talk it... you have to engage ...

Solving one of the oldest algebra problems isn't a bad claim to fame, and it's a claim Norman Wildberger can now make: The mathematician has solved what are known as higher-degree polynomial equations ...

When about 400 students at Alief Hastings High School failed or became "repeaters" in algebra classes last year, it was a problem. Now, Tremain Nelson, a former NASA electrical engineer, is providing ...

Two mathematicians have used a new geometric approach in order to address a very old problem in algebra. In school, we often learn how to multiply out and factor polynomial equations like (x² – 1) or ...

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 ...

A mathematician has uncovered a way of answering some of algebra's oldest problems. University of New South Wales Honorary Professor Norman Wildberger, has revealed a potentially game-changing ...
