Fundamental
Theorem of
Algebra
Fundamental Theorem of Algebra

If P(x) is a polynomial
equation of degree n and
with real coefficients, then
it has at most n real roots.
Zero –
Product
Property
• If A ∙ B = 0 , then A =
0 or B = 0
ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLES
Determine the most number of real
roots the given equation has then find the
roots by applying the Zero- Product
Property.
1. (x - 2)(2x + 3)(x + 1) = 0
2. x2(x2 – 9)(x - 1) 3 = 0
• If a root occurs twice, the root is
called a root of multiplicity 2. In
general, if a root occurs n times, it
is called a root of multiplicity n.
