• factor remainder theorem
    • f(_) = 0
    • expand it out just in case they are picky
  • therefore __ is a factor of f(x)
  • know how long division works its good, but preferred using the factor way frfr
  • very easy to make silly mistake, so double check it!
    • even goats can make mistakes
  • keep in mind what the question is asking for: if solutions, give solutions.
  • say the eq has all real coefficients (sometimes markers picky, especially in shenton, so better safe than sorry)
  • polar form -> rectangular form is useful
  • if you see i convert it to cis frfr , since it is cis(pi/2)

geometric interpretation

  • convert to polar form
  • find angle, then talk about how its dilated by sqrt()< anad its rotated about origin by an amount =D

question type 6- solving polynomials

  • important will def come up
  • find difference between answers if they are all equal it is correct
  • perimeter, area

binomial expansion

  • revise binomial expansioni
