Find | a | + | b | + | c |. OPTIONS     1) 79   2) 83   3) 98   4) More than one of the above discuss | yesterday's solution | more questions Tip of the Day If the remainder when a polynomial f ( x ) is divided by binomial of the form ( x – a ) is R , then f ( a ) = R . This is also called the Polynomial Remainder Theorem. Also, if ( x – a ) is a factor of f ( x ), then a will be a root of f ( x ). This is because, if ( x – a ) completely divides f ( x ) without leaving any remainder, then R = 0, and so f ( a ) = 0. more tips Last year's Question of the day (29-Sep-11) In Δ ABC, AD is drawn parallel to BC such that AD = BC.
