Remainder Theorem
Remainder Theorem - Recall the Remainder theorem and the Factor theorem. When f(x) is divided by (x-a) the remainder is (x-a) and if the remainder f(a) = 0 then x - a is a factor of the expression f (x..
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(..
Remainder Theorem
If f(x) is a polynomial in x and is divided by x-a; the remainder 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..
Factor Theorem
If p(x), a polynomial in x is divided by x-a and the remainder = f (a) is zero, then (x-a) is a factor of p(x..
Proof:
When p(x) is divided by x-a, R = p(a) (by remainder theorem) p(x) = (x-a).q(x)+p(a) (Dividend = Divisor x quotient + Remainder Division Algorithm) But p(a) = 0 is given. Hence p(x) = (x-a).q(x) Conversely if x-a is a factor of p(x) then p(a)=0. p(x) = (x-a).q(x) + R..

I love the interaction and ability to explain the process of math problem in depth! Would like see the same for all future lessons one on one! THANK YOU!!!
Very fast and clear. Made sure I understood the concepts instead of giving the answers to the problem.
This Tutor Vista is GREAT! loved this session, it helped me heaps.
Terific helped showed how to apply formulas i will study these examples to go further--much gratitude--will come back again ThankYou
