4.1 Continued: Synthetic Division CAUTION: Synthetic division can be used only when the divisor is x - c

Your Turn: Use p. 242 for help if necessary

Review from 4.1

Review: If one statement is true then they are all True! Vocabulary Needed: Remember the zeros of a function are the x-values that make function zero

4.2 Real Zeros Objectives: Find all rational zeros of a polynomial function Use the Factor Theorem Factor a polynomial completely Preview: In order to factor a polynomial we will follow these steps: Find the rational zeros Use the Factor Theorem to find linear factors and then divide. Factor any other reducible factors down completely by either repeating step 1, by finding irrational factors on graphing calculator, or, if quadratic, by using the quadratic formula.

How to do Step One: The Rational Zero Test Method of attack: Find all fractions that satisfy these conditions and test to see which ones are zero How do we test to see if an x-value is a zero?

Example A: The Rational Zeros of a Polynomial

Example B: Your Turn: Use P. 251 for Help if Necessary!

We Must Remember the Factor Theorem! Therefore in our examples we have found some factors! Ex a: Finding All Real Zeros of a Polynomial by Dividing Factors

Back to Your Example B! Finding All Real Zeros of a Polynomial by Dividing Factors to Find New Factors Use pg. 252 to help if necessary!

Irreducible and Completely Factored Polynomials A irreducible polynomial: a polynomial that cannot be written as the product of polynomials of lesser degree A completely factored polynomial over the set of real numbers: a polynomial written as the product of irreducible factors with real coefficients Which polynomials would be irreducible? Why am I mentioning over the set of real numbers? Summary: What We Just Did: Steps to factor a polynomial: Find the rational zeros Use the Factor Theorem to find linear factors and then divide. Factor any other reducible factors down completely by either repeating step 1, by finding irrational factors on graphing calculator, or, if quadratic, by using the quadratic formula. READ Example 3 on P. 254 for another good summary of steps!
