Abstract:
In this chapter we use the tools of Galois Theory to answer the three problems we described in the first chapter. Namely, given a polynomial, we find a sufficient and necessary condition for when there exists an exact formula for the roots of the polynomial, i.e. the Galois Theorem. We also find a sufficient and necessary condition for a point on the real plane to be constructible with straightedge and compass. Finally, we give an algebraic proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra.
