The Sextic Equation, its Algebraic Solution by Conversion to Solvable Factorized Form

Samuel Bonaya Buya

Abstract

I present a method of solving the sextic equation by converting it to a solvable factorized form. The factorized form will consist of two cubic and their five parameters. The factorized form is selected such that four of its parameters are functionally related to the two parameters of the reduced sextic equation. The fifth parameter will be a rational number
