FACTORISATION QUADRATIC POLYNOMIAL
For factorisation of a quadratic expression ax2 + bx + a where a ≠ 0, there are two method.
(a) By Method of Completion of Square :
In the form ax2 + bx + c where a ≠ 0, firstly we take ‘a’ common in the whole expression then factorise by converting the expression as the difference of two squares.

Question
(b) By Splitting the Middle Term:
In the quadratic expression ax2 + bx + c, where a is the coefficient of x2, b is the coefficient of x and c is the constant term. In the quadratic expression of the form x2 + bx + c, a = 1 is the multiple of x2 and another terms are the same as above.
There are four types of quadratic expression with respect to to the sign change of coefficients of x and constant term :
(i) ax2 + bx + c (ii) ax2– bx + c
(iii) ax2– bx – c (iv) ax2 + bx – c
Splitting middle term of ax2 + bx +c.
In this case, we find integers s and t such that s + t = b and st = ac.

p3q2x4 + 3p2qx3 + 3px2 + X/q– q2r3x
= X/q[p3q3x3 + 3p2q2x2 + 3pqx + 1 – q3r3]
= X/q[(pqx)3 + 3(pqx)2 .1 + 3pqx . (1)2 + (1)3– q3r3]
Let pqx = A & 1 = B
= X/q [A3 + 3A2B + 3AB2 + B3– q3r3]

= (x + 2)[x2– 2x + 4] + 6[2 + x][2 – x]
= (x + 2) [x2– 2x + 4 + 6(2 – x)]
= (x + 2)[x2– 2x + 4 + 12 – 6x]
= (x + 2) [x2– 8x + 16]
= (x + 2) (x – 4)2 Ans.
(e) Integral Root Theorem :
If f(x) is a polynomial with integral coefficient and the leading coefficient is 1, then any integer root of f(x) is a factor of the constant term. Thus if f(x) = x3– 6x2 + 11x - 6 has an Integral root, then it is one of the factors of 6 which are .
Now Infect f(1) = (1)3– 6(1)2 + 11(1) – 6 = 1 – 6 + 11 – 6 =0
f(2) = (2)3– 6(2)2 + 11(2) – 6 = 8 – 24 + 22 – 6 = 0
f(3) = (3)3– 6(3)2 + 11(3) – 6 = 27 – 54 + 33 – 6 = 0
Therefore Integral roots of f(x) are 1,2,3.
(f) Rational Root Theorem :
Let b/c be a rational fraction in lowest terms. If b/c is a root of the polynomial f(x) = with integral coefficients. Then b is a factor of constant term a0 and c is a factor of the leading coefficient an.
For example :If b/c is a rational root of the polynomial f(x) = 6x3 + 5x2– 3x – 2, then the values of b are limited to the factors of –2 which are and the value of c are limited to the factors of 6, which are
Hence, the possible rational roots of f(x) are
Infect -1 is a Integral root and 2/3,-1/2 are the rational roots of f(x) = 6x3 + 5x2– 3x – 2.
NOTE:
(i) An nth degree polynomial can have at most n real roots.
(ii) Finding a zero or root of polynomial f(x) means solving the polynomial equation f(x) = 0. It follows from the above discussion that if f(x) = ax + b, a ≠ 0 is a linear polynomial, then it has only one root given by f(x) = 0 i.e. f(x) = ax + b = 0
⇒ ax = – b
⇒ x =
Thus a= is the only root of f(x) = ax + b.

f(-2) = 2(–2)3– 13(–2)2 + 17 (–2) + 12
= –16 – 52 – 34 + 12 = – 90 Ans.
f(3) = 2(3)3– 13(3)2 + 17(3) + 12
= 54 – 117 + 51 + 12 = 0 Ans.

= 6x2 + x[1 – 5y] – (4y – 5)(y – 3)
= 6x2 + 3(y –3)x– 2(4y – 5)x – (4y –)(y - 3)
