Hensel's lemma the value of "c" mod 27: if "c" ≡ 1 mod 27 then use "a" = 1, if "c" ≡ 10 mod 27 then use "a" = 4 (since 4 is a root of "f"("x") mod 27), and if "c" ≡ 19 mod 27 then use "a" = 7. (It is not true that every "c" ≡ 1 mod 3 is a 3-adic cube, e.g., 4 is not a 3-adic cube since it is not a cube mod 9.) In a similar way, after some preliminary work Hensel's lemma can be used to show that for any "odd" prime number
Cube root be −2, , or . This is related with the concept of monodromy: if one follows by continuity the function "cube root" along a closed path around zero, after a turn the value of the cube root is multiplied (or divided) by formula_10 Cube roots arise in the problem of finding an angle whose measure is one third that of a given angle (angle trisection) and in the problem of finding the edge of a cube whose volume is twice that of a cube with a given edge (doubling the cube). In 1837 Pierre Wantzel proved that neither of these
