Study of polynomial and Partial fractions
Introduction
Improper fraction:
When the degree of denominator is greater or equal to degree of
numerator is called improper fraction.
Partial fraction:
Partial fraction is used to solve the improper fractions.
Order:
Highest degree of variable in a polynomial equation.
Operations:
1. 2nd Order polynomial equation:
A=[1 5 6];
B=roots(A)
Ans=
B=
