Question 2 (15 marks) (a) (b) © Consider the polynomial Plz) = c‘ ~ 4z° + 62" - 42 +5. (@) Show that z+i is a factor of P(2). (ii) Hence state why z ~ i is also a factor of P(z). Gi) Form the monic quadratic equation in z whose roots are + i. (iv) Hence factorise P(2) fully over the complex numbers, Given that the polynomial P(z) =z’ +22 ~ z+1 has zeros a, B and y, find the polynomial function whose roots are @ @-1,B-1 and y-1 Gi) (@- 1%, B- 1F and (y - LF flame el 1 hence (iii) find the value of - ——— @-1y 6-1¥ W-1P Using the polynomial in part (b), form the polynomial which has roots ap, By and ay yee DWQuestion 3 (9 marks) (a) When a polynomial is divided by x- 2 and x~ 3, the respective remainders are 4and 9. Find the remainder when the polynomial is divided by x* ~ Sx + 6. (b) (i) Ifthe polynomial P(x) has a zero @ of multiplicity n, prove that P’(x) has the same zero with multiplicity n- 1. (i) If a? + bx? +d=0 (where d # 0) has a double root, show that 21a'd + 4b* = 0. Question4 (8 marks) (a) (i) If z=cos@+isin @, use de Moivre’s theorem to show that v+z"=2cosn0, (i) Hence solve 2z‘ + 3° + 5¢?43z2+2=0, (b) if |z-@| = |z +l, find the difference between Argz and Argo. Show all reasoning.
