Further Mathematics:The Factor Theorem

In GCSE maths, you calculate the factors of quadratic equation using particular methods. These are the methods for calculating the factors of equations of higher orders such as cubics, quartics and quintics.

Q100 Factorising Using Factor Theorem

A video on using factor theorem. If substituting does not work when x=1, you need to be able to do it for x=2, x=3,x=4 and x= half as well. This video includes division of polynomials and factorising a quadratic using the grid method.
