About this lesson
This video continues the series looking at polynomials at a Year 10 level. Although this video is relevant to the Year 11 and Year 12 course too! It's such a good video and takes the learning from Polynomial Division and explains how we can use it find remainders and factors. This becomes important when we are trying to sketch cubics (and other graphs). There are lots of worked examples in this video explained in an easy to understand way. There is also some humour thrown in to make it memorable!
