About this lesson
This video is another in the series on Polynomials and Logarithms. Although at a Year 10 level, the content is covered in Year 11 and Year 12 and is really important in terms of Algebra. In this video I look at using all the theory from the previous videos and show how we can use polynomial division to factorise cubic equations. I even show how to solve them! There are a number of worked examples all of which are explained in a clear and easy to understand way.
