Remainder And Factor Theorems

Muhtasari

Dividing one polynomial by another can be slow. The remainder and factor theorems give you a shortcut so powerful it feels like cheating: you can find the remainder of a division, or test whether something is a factor, just by substituting a single number. No long division required.

In this lesson you will meet the remainder theorem, which says the remainder when a polynomial is divided by \((x-a)\) is simply \(f(a)\), and the factor theorem, its special case when that remainder is zero. Together they are the key to factorising and solving cubic equations, a staple of the higher-level syllabus.

Malengo

  1. Know and use the remainder and factor theorems.
  2. Find factors of polynomials and solve cubic equations.

Maelezo ya Somo

Cubic and higher polynomials appear throughout advanced mathematics, and the first step in working with them is usually to factorise. The factor theorem turns that daunting task into a search for a single root you can test by substitution. It is the gateway from quadratics to the polynomials you will meet again at AS and A Level.

  1. What is the remainder when f(x) = x^3 - 2x^2 + 5x - 1 is divided by (x - 2)? A. 0 B. 5 C. 9 D. 11 Answer: C
  2. By the factor theorem, (x - a) is a factor of f(x) when: A. f(0) = a B. f(a) = 0 C. f(a) = 1 D. f(1) = a Answer: B
  3. Is (x - 1) a factor of f(x) = x^3 - 6x^2 + 11x - 6? A. Yes, because f(1) = 0 B. No, because f(1) = 6 C. Yes, because f(0) = -6 D. No, because f(1) = 1 Answer: A
  4. The full factorisation of x^3 - 6x^2 + 11x - 6 is: A. (x - 1)(x - 2)(x - 3) B. (x + 1)(x + 2)(x + 3) C. (x - 1)^3 D. (x - 2)(x - 3)(x - 6) Answer: A
