Curated OER
The Remainder Theorem Using TI-Nspire CAS
Investigate the Remainder Theorem in this algebra lesson. Explore the relationship between the remainders of polynomial division and the function. Each of the four problems gets progressively more complicated. This might be a great...
Curated OER
Watch Your P's and Q's
Using your graphing calculator, find all the rational zeroes of a polynomials by using the Rational Zero Theorem. Divide polynomials using the Remainder Theorem and the Factor Theorem and then graph it to find the number of real roots.

Zeroes and factorization of a quadratic polynomial I
This activity uses the division algorithm and the definition of a zero/root of a function to guide your class to see the relationship between zeros and factors of a general quadratic, which can later be generalized to the Remainder...
Curated OER
Theory of Polynomials
In this polynomial instructional activity provides extra practice the Factor and Remainder Theorems. They identify factors of given linear expressions. This two-page instructional activity contains 19 problems. The answers are provided...
