Find roots of polynomial $$ p(x) = x^4-4x^2-5 $$
Answer
The roots of polynomial $ p(x) $ are:
$$ \begin{aligned}x_1 &= -2.2361\\[1 em]x_2 &= 2.2361\\[1 em]x_3 &= i\\[1 em]x_4 &= -i \end{aligned} $$Explanation
Polynomial $ x^4-4x^2-5 $ has no rational roots that can be found using Rational Root Test, so the roots were found using quartic formulas.
