use the answer to determine which letter corresponds to the problem number to solve the riddle!
“What did the math teachers have for dinner?”

1. (2x2–9x –35) ÷(x –7)

2. (2x3+ 7x2+ 8x + 15) ÷(x + 3)
3. (3x3+ 2x –1) ÷(x + 2)

5. (x3+ 729) ÷(x + 8)
6. (x 5 + x 4 − 15x 3 − 19x 2 − 6x + 1) at x = 4
7. (x3-2x2 -5x + 6) ÷ (x -3)

9. The area of a rectangle is 6x2+ 17x –45 and the width is x + 9. What is the length?

A= f(x)=(x2 +3x+1) (x-3)

!= f(x)=(3x2- 6x +14)(x+2) -29

D= f(x)=(2x2 +x +5)(x+3)
M= f(x)=(2x +5)(x-7)

S= f(x)=(x2 +5x+10)(x+3)-24

I= f(x)=(x4 +5x3 +5x2+x-2) (x-4) - 7

E= f(x)=(6x-37)(x+9) +288

R= f(x)=(x2 -8x+64)(x+8) +217

N= f(x)=(x4 -4x2 -2x-1) (x-5) +5

B. Lesson Proper
If f(x) is a polynomial and r is a real number , then f(x) is divided by x-r, we get a unique quotient which
is another polynomial q(x) and a remainder R which is a real number such that for all values of x,
F(x) =(x-r)Q(x) + R
Consider f(x)=(x-r)Q(x)+R
Note that if we let x=r, the expressions becomes f ( r ) = (r-r)q(r) + R
Simplifying gives : f ( r) = R
The process of getting the remainder theorem:

1. Find the remainder of P (x)= x3+5x-7 is divided by x+2

1st step Evaluate the value of x of the divisor

x-2=0
x=2
2nd step perform direct substitution when P (x)= x3+5x-7 is divided by x+2, remainder R=P(2)
P(2)= (2)3 + 5(2)-7
P(2)=11
2. Find the remainder of P (x)= x4-10x3+2x2 -8x+5 is divided by x+10
1st step Evaluate the value of x of the divisor
x-10=0
x=10
 2nd step perform direct substitution when P (x)= x4-10x3+2x2-8x+5 is divided by x+2,
remainder R=P(10)
P(10)= (10)4-10(10)3+2(10)2-8(10)+5
P(10)=10,000-10,000+200-80+5
P(10)= 125
Lets check by synthetic substitution.

C. Analysis
Based on the given examples analyze the process of getting the remainder of a polynomial
function by using the remainder theorem.
1. What is the first step in getting the remainder theorem?
2. What will you do after getting the value of x of the divisor?
3. After substituting the value of to the polynomial function what will you do?
4. To check if your remainder is correct what will you do?

D. Application
Seat Work
Use the remainder theorem to find the remainder when each polynomial is divided by the
corresponding binomial.
1. P (x)=x3+3x2 +2x-9 is divided by x-1
2. P (x)=3x3+12x2 +3x+8 is divided by x-4
3. P (x)=4x3+57x2-4x-3 is divided by x+3
4. P (x)=2x3+4x2 +x-6 is divided by x+2
5. P (x)=x3-3x2 –x+2 is divided by x-3
E. Abstraction
What is the remainder theorem and how to find the remainder when polynomial P(x) is
divided by (x-r)?

Arrange Me
Arrange the expressions or words in the box to formulate the remainder theorem.

Then If P(x) (x-r) is divided by P(r)=R

F. Assignment
Alvin worked out the given polynomials f(x)=5x3 -x4-x2+2x-10. He claimed that when
f(x) is divided by x+2 the remainder is -2. Is Alvin’s claim correct? Explain.

IV. Closure
In this lesson, substituting the variables (x) by the given value in (x-r) is so important. We cannot
solve or get the remainder of the given P(x) divided (x-r), if we are not going to substitute. It’s essential.
In real life we need the ability to understand and share the feelings of another. It’s being able to
put yourselves in the other shoes.
