Question

Check whether the first polynomial is a factor of the second polynomial by dividing the second polynomial by the first polynomial:
(i) t23,2t4+3t32t29t12
(ii) x2+3x+1,3x4+5x37x2+2x+2
(iii) x33x+1,x54x3+x2+3x+1

Solution

(i) Given polynomials t23,2t4+3t32t29t12
Division of 2t4+3t32t29t12 by t23

Remainder is 0, hence t23 is a factor of 2t4+3t32t29t12

(ii) Given x2+3x+1,3x4+5x37x2+2x+2
Division of 3x4+5x37x2+2x+2 by x2+3x+1 is

Remainder is 0, hence x2+3x+1 is a factor of 3x4+5x37x2+2x+2

(iii) x33x+1,x54x3+x2+3x+1
Division of x54x3+x2+3x+1 by x33x+1 is

Remainder is 2, hence x33x+1 is not a factor of x54x3+x2+3x+1
