Theorem 10. An irreducible polynomial f (x) over a field of characteristic p>0, is insep
rable if and only if f (x) = F [x²], that is, f (x) is a polynomial in xº.
Theorem. Let F be a field and f e F[x] a polynomial of degree n. Then
there is a finite-dimensional extension of F in which ƒ factors into linear
factors f(x) = (x – a1) ... (x – an).
Proof. Apply the last theorem repeatedly to get getting extensions of
extensions and factor out a linear factor each time until the degree is reduced
to 1.
Theorem 9. If F is a field of characteristic p=0, then the polynomial
f(x) = x -x EF[x], for n ≥ 1,
has distinct roots.
