Example 2.1 a Example 2.1 a Example 2.1 a Example 2.1 b Example 2.1 b Example 2.1 b Example 2.2 Example 2.2 * Completing the Square The quadratic polynomial can be expressed in the form by completing the square. Completing-square method is mainly used in solving inequalities and equations involving polynomials which cannot be factorized. * Completing the Square * Completing the Square * Completing the Square If has a minimum value q when x p, the minimum point is p, q . minimum point p, q Axis of symmetry, x p * Completing the Square If has a maximum value q when x p, the maximum point is p, q . maximum point p, q Axis of symmetry, x p * Example 2.13 Complete the square for each of the following quadratic functions and state the maximum or minimum value of the function. i ii * Cubic Equation In the form : Each cubic equation has THREE roots : either all three are real roots, or one is real and two others are complex roots. * Example 2.14 Solve the following cubic equations, giving your answers in the surd form. i ii FHMM 1114General Mathematics I Lecture Chapter 2 Polynomial Part A * Topics The Polynomial The Remainder Theorem The Factor Theorem Equations * Polynomial A polynomial in x is an expression : where n is a positive integer degree of polynomial are constants coefficients of polynomial Note: A polynomial does not contain terms like Using long division, find the quotient when is divided by . Note: If the divisor is linear, the quotient can also be found using synthetic division. Solution: Using long division, Solution: Using synthetic division, The quotient is Using long division, find the quotient when is divided by . Solution: Using long division, Solution: Using synthetic division, * Example 2.2 Determine the quotient and remainder when is divided by Solution: Using long division, Solution: Using synthetic division, * Equal Polynomials Two polynomials are equal if i Both polynomi
