Colin the MathmoEvery polynomial with real coefficients factors into linear and quadratic terms.How much machinery is needed to show this?If it crosses the X-axis then it has a linear term.If it doesn't cross the X-axis then it is of even degree, and the roots come in complex conjugate pairs.What the minimum needed to see this?<a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/maths" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#maths</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/math" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#math</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/algebra" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#algebra</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/ComplexNumbers" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#ComplexNumbers</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/MathsChat" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#MathsChat</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/MathChat" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#MathChat</a>

Colin the MathmoI've been thinking about this for ages, but never had the time to craft the words around it.People keep saying that "Maths should be fun" ... and I push back with "It should be engaging ...
