Polynomial Division
How do you apply the traditional division algorithm to polynomials? Here is an Algebra II lesson that extends the use of the division algorithm to polynomials. After establishing the concept of long division, synthetic division and the...
Curated OER
Fundamental Theorem of Algebra
In this worksheet, learners identify the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra. They solve polynomial functions and simplify expressions and equations.
Curated OER
Arithmetic Complex Numbers
Students convert quadratic functions from standard form to vertex form. In this algebra lesson plan, students solve polynomials using synthetic and long division. They derive and apply the remainder theorem and factor theorem.
Curated OER
Polynomial Divisions
Students factor polynomials and use long division t solve problems. In this algebra lesson, students find the zeros of polynomials by synthetic and long division. They perform operation using complex numbers.
