Factoring Polynomials of Higher Degree

This wiki is incomplete.

As the degree of the polynomials increases, it becomes difficult to factorize them. Thus, this wiki aims at learning various methods to make the factoring of polynomials of higher degree easier.

One way to factor polynomials of higher degree is called factoring by grouping

\(x^3 - 3x^2 - x +3\) can be grouped like \((x^3 - x)+(3 - 3x^2)\). Which can then be factored as \(x(x^2-1)-3(x^2-1)\). Which can be turned into \((x-3)(x^2-1)\)
