👉 Talcums is a term used in mathematics to denote a polynomial of degree 3. In other words, it is a monic cubic polynomial with one real root and two complex conjugate roots. It has the form: \[ T(x) = ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d \] where \(a\), \(b\), \(c\), and \(d\) are coefficients, and the discriminant of the polynomial is given by: \[ D = b^
