  1. Heya !!!

    • ( root 3 ) and (- root 3) are the two zeroes of the given polynomial.
    • ( X – root 3 ) ( X + root 3 ) are also factor of polynomial P(X).
    • Therefore,

    ( X – root 3 ) ( X + root 3) = (X² – 3)

    G(X) = X²-3

    P(X) = X⁴ + X³ – 9X² – 3X+ 18

    • On dividing P(X) by G(X) we get,
    • X² – 3 ) X⁴ + X³ – 9X² – 3X + 18 ( X² + X -6*X⁴ -3X²

    ———————————————

    0+X³ – 6X² – 3X + 18

    X³-3

    —————————————-

    0*-6X² 0*+18

    -6X² +18

    ——————————————

    We get,

    Remainder = 0

    And,

    Quotient = X² + X – 6

    • After factorise the quotient we will get two other zeroes of the given polynomial.

    => X²+X -6

    => X² + 3X – 2X -6

    => X ( X + 3) – 2 ( X +3)

    => (X + 3) ( X -2) = 0

    => (X + 3) = 0 OR (X -2) = 0

    => X = -3 OR X = 2

    • Hence,-3 , root 3 , 2 and – root 3 are four zeroes of the polynomial X⁴+X³-9X² -3X + 18.
