(i) State the Division Algorithm for polynomials. (ii) Explain why, when a polynomial f(x)f(x) is divided by a non-zero polynomial g(x)g(x), the degree of the remainder is always less than the degree of g(x)g(x). (iii) If the remainder obtained on dividing f(x)f(x) by g(x)g(x) is the zero polynomial, what conclusion can be drawn about g(x)g(x) in relation to f(x)f(x)? Give reason.
