Obtain all other zeros of (x3+4x3−2x2−20x−15) if two of its zeros are √5 and −√5.
√5 and −√5 are the zeros of the polynomial (x3+4x3−2x2−20x−15)
Therefore, (x–√5)(x+√5)=x2–5 will divide the given polynomial completely.
Dividing (x3+4x3−2x2−20x−15) by x2–5, we get
Quotient =x2+4x+3=x2+3x+x+3
=x(x+3)+(x+3)=(x+3)(x+1)
Other zeros of the given polynomial are the zeros of q(x)
Therefore, x=−3,−1
Thus, the zeros of the given polynomial are √5,–√5,−3,−1
