Preview Activity 14.1. In previous investigations, we defined irreducible polynomials and showed that irreducible polynomials in polynomial rings over fields play the same role as primes play in Z. In this investigation we will explore some methods to determine when a polynomial is irreducible, with a special emphasis on polynomials with coefficients in C, R, and Q. To begin, we will review the definition and a simple case. Let F be a field. (a) Give a formal definition of what...
