Polynomials

Study with Me – Polynomials (Ext 1 Only)

Division, Remainder and Factor Theorem, Relationship between Roots and Coefficients, Roots of Multiplicity

In this video, I will demonstrate how to answer some typical and advanced polynomial exam questions using examples from real exams under Extension 1 Maths (3U) course. Examples include:

• Polynomial division, factorising polynomials and solving polynomial equations

• Application of the remainder and factor theorem

• Relationship between the roots and coefficients of a polynomial

• Application of calculus to find roots of multiplicity

This is relevant for both Year 11 and Year 12 students preparing for HSC Mathematics and HSC Maths Extension 1 for 2020 and onwards.

Pumped for some extra practice? Here’s a revision question set on polynomials for you to try at home.
