| Summary |
 |
| |
Polynomial |
| |
| An algebraic expression of the form a0+a1x+a2x2+….+anxn where |
| |
| a0, a1, a2,….an are real numbers, n is a positive integer is called a polynomial in x. |
| |
Methods of factorising polynomials |
| |
| There are various methods of factorising a polynomial. They are, |
| |
Factorisation by dividing the expression by the HCF of the terms of |
| |
| the given expression. |
| |
Factorisation by grouping the terms of the expression. |
| |
Factorisation using identities. |
| |
Remainder theorem |
| |
| If f(x) is a polynomial in x and is divided by x-a; then the remainder is |
| |
| is the value of f(x) at x = a i.e., remainder = f(a). |
| |
Factor theorem |
| |
| If p(x) is a polynomial in x and is divided by and the remainder = f(a) is zero then (x-a) is a factor of p(x). |
