Free polynomials worksheets for Class 9 and 10: degree, value of a polynomial, zeroes, remainder theorem, multiplying and factorising quadratics, and sum and product of zeroes — with answers.
💡 Learn it first
The degree is the highest power of x: 4x³ − 2x + 7 has degree 3. Degree 1 = linear, 2 = quadratic, 3 = cubic. Value p(a): put a in place of x. If p(a) = 0, then a is a zero of p(x).Remainder theorem : the remainder when p(x) is divided by (x − a) is p(a). Factor theorem : if p(a) = 0, then (x − a) is a factor.Factorise x² + bx + c: find two numbers that multiply to c and add to b — x² + 5x + 6 = (x + 2)(x + 3). For ax² + bx + c (Class 10): sum of zeroes = −b/a, product = c/a.

Questions
What is the zero of a polynomial? A value of x that makes the polynomial equal to 0. For x² − 5x + 6 = (x − 2)(x − 3), the zeroes are 2 and 3.
What is the remainder theorem? When p(x) is divided by (x − a), the remainder is p(a) — so you can find the remainder without long division.
