Polynomials

Remainder Theorem
Gives the remainder when a polynomial p(x) is divided by the linear divisor (x - a).
Factor Theorem
States that the linear binomial (x - a) divides p(x) completely if and only if p(a) = 0.
Division Algorithm for Polynomials
Expresses dividend p(x) as divisor g(x) times quotient q(x) plus remainder r(x).
Zeroes and Coefficients of a Quadratic Polynomial
Gives the sum and product of zeroes for the quadratic polynomial ax^2 + bx + c.
Formation of Quadratic Polynomial from Zeroes
Forms a quadratic polynomial given its zeroes, or their sum S and product P (k \neq 0).
Zeroes and Coefficients of a Cubic Polynomial
Relates the sum, pairwise sum, and product of zeroes of ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d to its coefficients.
