Factorisation of a Polynomial by Power Completion: Using the Binomial Theorem
Tafara Chinyati
Abstract: Factorisation by power completion has been done for quadratic expressions only over the years. The process has not been used for higher powers as most studies showed that it requires multiple substitutions and is not that necessary. However, it is a necessary process in identifying perfect powers, their multiples and determining the pertext power closest to a given polynomial expression.
