Remainder Theoram:

The Remainder Theorem states that

⇛ If a polynomial f(x) is divided by a linear divisor (x – a), the remainder is f(a)


\Large{ \boxed{ \bf{ \color{green}{Solution:}}}}

Given,

  • p(x) = x^4 + x^2 + 2
  • g(x) = x - 3

We don't need to divide by (x−3) ...

☃️Just calculate p(3):

Then, Using remainder theoram,

➝ (3)^4 + (3)^2 + 2

➝ 81 + 9 + 2

92

☘️ So, The remainder is 92

Option B
