⇒ x3 - 3x2 + x +2 = g(x) × (x - 2) + (-2x + 4)
⇒ x3 - 3x2 + x + 2 + 2x - 4 = g(x)(x - 2)
⇒ x3 - 3x2 + 3x - 2 = g(x)(x - 2)
g(x) is the quotient when we divide (x3 - 3x2 + 3x - 2) by (x - 2)

(ii)
(iii)
Answer:Degree of a polynomial is the highest power of the variable in the polynomial. For example if f(x) = x3 - 2x2 + 1, then the degree of this polynomial will be 3.
(i) By division Algorithm : p(x) = g(x) x q(x) + r(x)
It means when P(x) is divided by g(x) then quotient is q(x) and remainder is r(x)
We need to start with p(x) = q(x)
This means that the degree of polynomial p(x) and quotient q(x) is same. This can only happen if the degree of g(x) = 0 i.e p(x) is divided by a constant
Let p(x) = x2 + 1 and g(x) = 2
The,
Clearly, Degree of p(x) = Degree of q(x)
2. Checking for division algorithm,
p(x) = g(x) × q(x) + r(x)
=
Thus, the division algorithm is satisfied.
(ii) Let us assume the division of x3+ x by x2,
Here,
p(x) = x3+ x
g(x) = x2
q(x) = x and r(x) = x
Clearly, the degree of q(x) and r(x) is the same i.e.,
Checking for division algorithm,
p(x) = g(x) × q(x) + r(x) x3+ x
= (x2 ) × x + x x3+ x = x3+ x
Thus, the division algorithm is satisfied.
(iii) Degree of the remainder will be 0 when the remainder comes to a constant.
Let us assume the division of x3+ 1by x2.
Here,
p(x) = x3+ 1 g(x) = x2
q(x) = x and r(x) = 1
Clearly, the degree of r(x) is 0. Checking for division algorithm,
p(x) = g(x) × q(x) + r(x)x3+ 1
= (x2 ) × x + 1 x3+ 1 = x3+1

Since the remainder is 0,
Hence, t2 – 3 is a factor of 2t4+3t3-2t2-9t-12.
(ii)
Since the remainder is 0,
Hence, x2+3x+1 is a factor of 3x4+5x3-7x2+2x+2.
(iii)
Since the remainder ≠0,
Hence, x3-3x+1 is not a factor of x5-4x3+ x2+3x+1.
Question 3.

Since the two zeroes are .
is a factor of 3x4 + 6x3 - 2x2 - 10x - 5.
Therefore, we divide the given polynomial by .
We know,
Dividend = (Divisor × quotient) + remainder
3 x4 + 6 x3 - 2x2 - 10 x - 5 =
3 x4 + 6 x3 - 2 x2 - 10 x - 5 =
As (a+b)2 = a2 + b2 + 2ab
3 x4 + 6 x3 - 2 x2 - 10 x - 5 = 3 () (x + 1)2
Therefore, its zero is given by x + 1 = 0.

Quotient = (x − 2)
Remainder = (− 2x + 4)
To find : divisor = g(x)
we know,
Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder
⇒ x3 - 3x2 + x +2 = g(x) × (x - 2) + (-2x + 4)
⇒ x3 - 3x2 + x + 2 + 2x - 4 = g(x)(x - 2)
⇒ x3 - 3x2 + 3x - 2 = g(x)(x - 2)
g(x) is the quotient when we divide (x3 - 3x2 + 3x - 2) by (x - 2)

(iii)
Answer:
Degree of a polynomial is the highest power of the variable in the polynomial. For example if f(x) = x3 - 2x2 + 1, then the degree of this polynomial will be 3.
(i) By division Algorithm : p(x) = g(x) x q(x) + r(x)
It means when P(x) is divided by g(x) then quotient is q(x) and remainder is r(x)
We need to start with p(x) = q(x)
This means that the degree of polynomial p(x) and quotient q(x) is same. This can only happen if the degree of g(x) = 0 i.e p(x) is divided by a constant
Let p(x) = x2 + 1 and g(x) = 2
The,
Clearly, Degree of p(x) = Degree of q(x)
2. Checking for division algorithm,
p(x) = g(x) × q(x) + r(x)
=
Thus, the division algorithm is satisfied.
(ii) Let us assume the division of x3+ x by x2,
Here,
p(x) = x3+ x
g(x) = x2
q(x) = x and r(x) = x
Clearly, the degree of q(x) and r(x) is the same i.e.,
Checking for division algorithm,
p(x) = g(x) × q(x) + r(x) x3+ x
= (x2 ) × x + x x3+ x = x3+ x
Thus, the division algorithm is satisfied.
(iii) Degree of the remainder will be 0 when the remainder comes to a constant.
Let us assume the division of x3+ 1by x2.
Here,
p(x) = x3+ 1 g(x) = x2
q(x) = x and r(x) = 1
Clearly, the degree of r(x) is 0. Checking for division algorithm,
p(x) = g(x) × q(x) + r(x)x3+ 1
= (x2 ) × x + 1 x3+ 1 = x3+1
Thus, the division algorithm is satisfied.

Question 2.Find a cubic polynomial with the sum, sum of the product of its zeroes taken two at a time, and the product of its zeroes as 2, -7, -14 respectively.
Answer:For a cubic polynomial equation, ax3 + bx2 + cx + d, and zeroes α, β and γ
we know that
Let the polynomial be ax3 + bx2 + cx + d, and zeroes α, β and γ.
A cubic polynomial with respect to its zeroes is given by,
x3 - (sum of zeroes) x2 + (Sum of the product of roots taken two at a time) x - Product of Roots = 0
x3 - (2) x2 + (- 7) x - (- 14) = 0
x3 - (2) x2 + (- 7) x + 14 = 0
Hence, the polynomial is x3 - 2x2 - 7x + 14.

Question 4.If two zeroes of the polynomial x4 - 6x3 - 26x2 + 138x - 35 are find other zeroes.
Answer:Given:
2+√3 and 2-√3 are zeroes of given equation,
Therefore,
(x - 2 + √3)(x - 2 - √3) should be a factor of given equation.
Also, (x - 2 + √3)(x - 2 - √3) = x2 - 2x - √3x -2x + 4 + 2√3 + √3x - 2√3 - 3
= x2 - 4x + 1
To find other zeroes, we divide given equation by x2 - 4x + 1
We get ,
x4 - 6x3 - 26x2 + 138x - 35 = (x2 - 4x + 1)(x2 - 2x - 35)
Now factorizing x2 - 2 x - 35 we get,
The value of polynomial is also zero when ,
x - 7 = 0
or
x = 7

x = -5
Hence, 7 and -5 are also zeroes of this polynomial.
Question 5.If the polynomial x4 - 6x3 + 16x2 - 25x + 10 is divided by another polynomial x2 - 2k + k the remainder comes out to be x + a, find k and a.
Answer:To solve this question divide x4 - 6 x3 + 16 x2 - 25 x + 10 by x2 - 2 x + k by long division method
Let us divide, by
So, remainder = (2k - 9)x + (10 - 8k + k2)
But given remainder = x + a
⇒ (2k - 9)x + (10 - 8k + k2) = x + a
Comparing coefficient of x, we have
2k - 9 = 1
⇒ 2k = 10
⇒ k = 5
and
Comparing constant term,
10 - 8k + k2 = a
⇒ a = 10 - 8(5) + 52
⇒ a = 10 - 40 + 25
⇒ a = -5
So, the value of k is 5 and a is -5.

If two zeroes of the polynomial x4 - 6x3 - 26x2 + 138x - 35 are find other zeroes.
Answer:
Given:
2+√3 and 2-√3 are zeroes of given equation,
Therefore,
(x - 2 + √3)(x - 2 - √3) should be a factor of given equation.
Also, (x - 2 + √3)(x - 2 - √3) = x2 - 2x - √3x -2x + 4 + 2√3 + √3x - 2√3 - 3
= x2 - 4x + 1
We get ,
x4 - 6x3 - 26x2 + 138x - 35 = (x2 - 4x + 1)(x2 - 2x - 35)
Now factorizing x2 - 2 x - 35 we get,

Question 5.
If the polynomial x4 - 6x3 + 16x2 - 25x + 10 is divided by another polynomial x2 - 2k + k the remainder comes out to be x + a, find k and a.
Answer:
To solve this question divide x4 - 6 x3 + 16 x2 - 25 x + 10 by x2 - 2 x + k by long division method
Let us divide, by
So, remainder = (2k - 9)x + (10 - 8k + k2)
But given remainder = x + a
⇒ (2k - 9)x + (10 - 8k + k2) = x + a
Comparing coefficient of x, we have
2k - 9 = 1
⇒ 2k = 10
⇒ k = 5
and
Comparing constant term,
10 - 8k + k2 = a
⇒ a = 10 - 8(5) + 52
⇒ a = 10 - 40 + 25
⇒ a = -5
So, the value of k is 5 and a is -5.
