d. A repeated irreducible quadratic factor

검증된 단계별 안내

Understand what an irreducible quadratic factor is: it is a quadratic polynomial (degree 2) that cannot be factored further over the real numbers, meaning it has no real roots.

Recognize that a repeated irreducible quadratic factor means the quadratic factor appears more than once in the factorization of a polynomial.

Construct an example by choosing an irreducible quadratic, such as \(x^{2} + 1\), which has no real roots and cannot be factored over the reals.

Form a polynomial where this quadratic factor is repeated, for example, by squaring it: \((x^{2} + 1)^{2}\).

Write the full polynomial explicitly: \((x^{2} + 1)^{2} = (x^{2} + 1)(x^{2} + 1)\), which clearly shows the repeated irreducible quadratic factor.

Irreducible Quadratic Factor

An irreducible quadratic factor is a quadratic polynomial that cannot be factored into real linear factors. Typically, it has a negative discriminant (b² - 4ac < 0), meaning it has no real roots. For example, x² + 1 is irreducible over the real numbers.

Repeated Factor

A repeated factor in a polynomial is a factor that appears more than once, indicating multiplicity greater than one. For instance, (x - 2)² means the factor (x - 2) is repeated twice. Repeated factors affect the shape of the graph and the behavior of the function at the root.

Combining Repeated and Irreducible Quadratic Factors

A repeated irreducible quadratic factor is a quadratic polynomial that is irreducible and appears with multiplicity greater than one in a polynomial. For example, (x² + 1)² is a repeated irreducible quadratic factor because x² + 1 cannot be factored further and is squared.
