Consider the polynomial of a complex variable z given by f(z)=z³-8z²+25z-26
(a) Show that z-3+2i is factor of f(z)
(b) Develop the quadratic factor of f(z)
(c) Hence, completely solve the equation f(z)=0
Consider the polynomial of a complex variable given by
(a) Let us show that is factor of Since
we conclude that is a root of and hence according to Bezout Theorem, is factor of
(b) Let us develop the quadratic factor of Since the coefficients of are the real numbers, is also a root of and hence is factor of It follows that
is the quadratic factor of
(c) Hence, let us completely solve the equation
It follows that
and thus is the third root of the equation.
We conclude that the roots of the equations are:
and 2.
