Factor Theorem

The video tutorial covers the concept of divisibility and polynomial factorization, starting with a simple example of distributing pencils and candies. It introduces the remainder and factor theorems, providing proofs and applications. The tutorial explains how to determine if a polynomial is a factor of another without division, using the factor theorem. It also covers techniques for factorizing quadratic polynomials and provides step-by-step guidance on polynomial factorization. Advanced examples are included to illustrate the application of these concepts.
