Polynomial and Synthetic Division You should know the following basic techniques and principles of polynomial division. The Division Algorithm (Long Division of Polynomials) Synthetic Division f k is equal to the remainder of f divided by k. (The Remainder Theorem) f k if and only if k is a factor of f.

A divisor divides evenly into a dividend if the remainder is zero.. You can check polynomial division by multiplying the quotient by the divisor. This should yield the original dividend if the multiplication was performed correctly.. To divide evenly, equal. c c c must equal zero. Thus, c must. c c To divide evenly, c must equal zero. Thus, c must equal.. f The remainder when k is zero since is a factor of f.. In this case it is easier to evaluate f directly because f is in factored form. To evaluate using synthetic division you would have to epand each factor and then multiply it all out. 7.. ± ± or or. b ± b ac a ± ± ±
