The rational root theorem is a special case (for a single linear factor) of Gauss's lemma on the factorization of polynomials. The integral root theorem is the special case of the rational root theorem when the leading coefficient is a n = 1.
Theorem — The number of strictly positive roots (counting multiplicity) of is equal to the number of sign changes in the coefficients of , minus a nonnegative even number. If b 0 > 0 {\displaystyle b_{0}>0} , then we can divide the polynomial by x b 0 {\displaystyle x^{b_{0}}} , which would not change its number of strictly positive roots.
This results from the rational root theorem, which asserts that, if the rational number is a root of a polynomial with integer coefficients, then q is a divisor of the leading coefficient; so, if the polynomial is monic, then =, and the number is an integer.

By the rational root theorem, this has no rational zeroes. Neither does it have linear factors modulo 2 or 3. The Galois group of f(x) modulo 2 is cyclic of order 6, because f(x) modulo 2 factors into polynomials of orders 2 and 3, (x 2 + x + 1)(x 3 + x 2 + 1). f(x) modulo 3 has no linear or quadratic factor, and hence is irreducible. Thus its ...
Casus irreducibilis occurs when none of the roots are rational and when all three roots are distinct and real; the case of three distinct real roots occurs if and only if q 2 / 4 + p 3 / 27 < 0, in which case Cardano's formula involves first taking the square root of a negative number, which is imaginary, and then taking the ...

The complex conjugate root theorem states that if the coefficients of a polynomial are real, then the non-real roots appear in pairs of the form (a + ib, a – ib). It follows that the roots of a polynomial with real coefficients are mirror-symmetric with respect to the real axis.
