Partial Fraction Decomposition MA 132 Lecture Note Outlines-Morrison Partial Fraction Decomposition MA 132 Lecture Note Outlines-Morrison Definitions: Rational Expression: A polynomial function divided by a polynomial function. Degree of polynomial: The value of the highest exponent. Proper Rational Expression: A rational expression where the degree of the numerator is strictly less than the degree of the denominator. Improper Rational Expression: A rational expression where the degree of the numerator is greater than or equal to the degree of the denominator. Polynomial Long Division: The process used to convert improper rational expressions into proper rational expressions. Linear Factor: A factor of the form ax b . Irreducible Quadratic Factor: A factor of the form ax 2 bx c where the discriminant is negative. b2 4ac 0 Fundamental Theorem of Algebra: All polynomials can be factored into linear and irreducible factors. Examples of polynomial long division: 4x3 5x 2 3x 7 x 4 2x 2 6x 8 x 2 x 2 3 The process to decompose a fraction: 1. Make sure it is proper. 2. Factor the denominator. 3. For every distinct linear factor, create a fraction with the denominator equal to the factor, then add an unknown constant. 4. For every distinct irreducible quadratic factor, create a fraction with the denominator equal to the factor, then add an unknown linear factor on top. 5. For repeated roots, see examples. 6. Solve. Multiply by the denominator on both sides. Then create a system of equations or substitute in values for x that will make the equations eliminate a unknown. Examples: 12 x 2 9 x 4 5x 1 dx dx x 2 5x 6 2x 1x 1 2x 3 1 dx dx 2 2 2 x 1 xx 4 Things to remember: dx 1 x arctan c x2 a2 a a If not proper, use long division first (note proper means smaller power on top) Factor the bottom into linear factors (of the form ax+b) or irreducible quadratics (discriminate ( b2 4ac ) is negative) [Note: FTA says every polynomial reduces to exactly linear factors and irreducible quadratics] Given a rational expression (polynomial divided by a polynomial) o Remember that we are creating proper fractions, so on top of linear factors we use constants, on top of quadratics we use linear terms, no top will ever be greater than a linear term o We must account for any possible combination of bottom terms, so include a fraction for each power (when a factor has a multiplicity greater than one.) 1 Example: x(x 1)(x 2)3 (x2 1)(x2 3x 4)2 A B C D E Fx G Hx I Jx K x (x 1) (x 2) (x 2)2 (x 2)3 (x2 1) (x2 3x 4) (x2 3x 4)2 Solve 9x2 3x 5 (A B C)x2 (A 2B)x (B C) by solving 9 A B C and 3 A 2B and 5 B C simultaneously a b a b When we have a linear over a polynomial, we can separate it into two fractions c c c Mostly we integrate these to ln , use u-substitution, or use the arctan identity. .

Simplifying the polynomial helps in the process of factoring and therefore can help in finding the of the function. Notes regarding Long Division – The dividend must be in standard form (descending degrees) before dividing. Include the degrees not present by putting 0xn.

  • Dividing Polynomials* 291 13 | DIVIDING POLYNOMIALS
    Chapter 13 | Dividing Polynomials* 291 13 | DIVIDING POLYNOMIALS Figure 13.1 Lincoln Memorial, Washington, D.C. (credit: Ron Cogswell, Flickr) The exterior of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C., is a large rectangular solid with length 61.5 meters (m), width 40 m, and height 30 m.[1] We can easily find the volume using elementary geometry. V = l ⋅ w ⋅ h = 61.5 ⋅ 40 ⋅ 30 = 73,800 So the volume is 73,800 cubic meters (m ³ ). Suppose we knew the volume, length, and width. We could divide to find the height. h = V l ⋅ w = 73, 800 61.5 ⋅ 40 = 30 As we can confirm from the dimensions above, the height is 30 m. We can use similar methods to find any of the missing dimensions. We can also use the same method if any or all of the measurements contain variable expressions. For example, suppose the volume of a rectangular solid is given by the polynomial 3x4 − 3x3 − 33x2 + 54x. The length of the solid is given by 3x; the width is given by x − 2. To find the height of the solid, we can use polynomial division, which is the focus of this section. 13.1 | Using Long Division to Divide Polynomials We are familiar with the long division algorithm for ordinary arithmetic. We begin by dividing into the digits of the dividend that have the greatest place value. We divide, multiply, subtract, include the digit in the next place value position, and repeat. For example, let’s divide 178 by 3 using long division. 1. National Park Service.

  • Partial Fraction Decomposition by Division Sidney H
    Partial Fraction Decomposition by Division Sidney H. Kung ([email protected]) University of North Florida, Jacksonville FL 32224 In this note, we present a method for the partial fraction decomposition of two algebraic functions: (i) f (x)/(ax + b)t and (ii) f (x)/(px2 + qx + r)t ,where f (x) is a polynomial of degree n, t is a positive integer, and px2 + qx + r is an irreducible (q2 < 4pr) quadratic polynomial. Our algorithm is relatively simple in comparison with those given elsewhere [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]. The essence of the method is to use repeated division to re-express the numerator polynomial in powers of the normalized denominator. Then upon further divisions, we obtain a sum of partial fractions in the i 2 j form Ai /(ax + b) or (B j x + C j )/(px + qx + r) for the original function. For (i), we let c = b/a, and express f (x) as follows: n n−1 2 f (x) = An(x + c) + An−1(x + c) +···+ A2(x + c) + A1(x + c) + A0 n−1 n−2 = (x + c)[An(x + c) + An−1(x + c) +···+ A2(x + c) + A1]+A0, where each Ai is a real coefficient to be determined. Then the remainder after we divide f (x) by x + c gives the value of A0. The quotient is n−2 n−3 q1(x) = (x + c)[An(x + c) + An−1(x + c) +···+ A3(x + c) + A2]+A1. If we now divide q1(x) by x + c, we see that the next remainder is A1 and the quotient is n−3 n−4 q2(x) = (x + c)[An(x + c) + An−1(x + c) +···+ A3]+A2.
