1)If x – 3 is a factor of x2 – 6x + 12, then find the value of k. Also, find the other factor of the
polynomial for this value of k.

2)If the polynomials ax3 + 3x2 – 13 and 2x3 – 5x + a, when divided by (x – 2), leave the same
remainders, find the value of a.

3)Factorise:

a)54x6y + 2x3y4

b)(a – 2b)3 – 512b3

c)x3 + 6x2 + 12x + 16

d)x3y3+ 1

4)In each of the following, use factor Theorem to find whether polynomial g(x) is a factor of
polynomial f(x) or, not:

a)f(x) = x3 – 6x2 + 11x – 6; g(x) = x – 3

b)f(x) = 3X4 + 17x3 + 9x2 – 7x – 10; g(x) = x + 5

5) For what value of a (x – 5) is a factor of x3 – 3x2 + ax – 10?
