Examate: When the polynomial px? + 4x? + 3x - 4and x — 4x + pare divided by x ~ 3, the re:
are the same. Find the vatue of p.
Example: If the polynomials 3x3 + ax? + 3x +5 and 4x? +x? — 2x +a leave the same remainder when
divided vy « - 2, find the vaiue of a. Also, find the remainder in each case

Lsample: Divide f(x) = 2x* -
1. Reariange (he dividend into the standard form. (descending powers of x)
2. Write the coefficients of the dividend inside the division sign and write the value which makes the
divisor equat to 0 outside
3, Pull down the first number of the divcien:
4, Muttiply this number by the divisor. Write the product in the next column.
5. Ac this step, wwe have two numbers in the same column, "Add* ther,
ntil the last column is added,
6, Repeat steps 4
Examples: find the quotient and the remainder of each of the foliowing divisions.

Example: Factorize of x? —
1. Find the factors of the constant term,
— 14x + 24 by using the factor theorem.
2, Take one of the factors, say 1, and find (1). If f(1) = 0, then x ~ Lis a factor of this polynomial.
se, take another factor, say
Ott
and find /(-1) and continue this process until we find a value of
£(®) = 0. We call this vatue
3. Do synthetic division where f(x) is the dividend and x ~ cis the divisor.
4, If the quotient is ¢ quadratic polynomial, factorize the quotient using factorization of quadratic polynomials,
Otherwise
at steps 2 and 3 until the quotient is a quadratic polynomial
