Algebraic Theorems
Lesson Outline
Hunter and I looked at several different theorems today. The Rational Root Theorem tells you how to find possible roots of polynomials. The Irrational Root Theorem, and the Imaginary Root Theorem, both deal with conjugates as roots. We used these theorems to work some exercises on p. 339(13-18). I then taught Hunter about Gauss's Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, which states that the number of roots of a polynomial is equal to the degree of the polynomial. Hunter used the theorems to list the number of real and complex roots of a variety of polynomials p.343 (13-18). I also started to review Hunter on classifying polynomials p.359 (6-10)
