Find the GCD of the following pairs of polynomials using division algorithm.
3x3 + 18x2 + 33x + 18, 3x2 + 13x + 10
According to the question,
3x3 + 18x2 + 33x + 18 then put x = – 1 in that equation
put x = – 1
then, – 3 + 18 – 33 + 18 = 0
Then the equation is divisible by x + 1, using division algorithm method.
(x + 1)(3x2 + 15x + 18) = (x + 1)[3x2 + 9x + 6x + 18]
= (x + 1)[3x(x + 3) + 6(x + 3)]
= 3(x + 1)(x + 2)(x + 3)
3x2 + 13x + 10 = 3x2 + 3x + 10x + 10 = 3x(x + 1) + 10(x + 1)
= (x + 1)(3x + 10)
Greatest common divisor = (x + 1)
