someone help me find all the zeros..... one zeros is -i and another is obviously +i... f(x)=x^4+5x^2+4

OpenStudy (loser66):

since you have \(\pm i\), therefore, you have \(x^2 +1\) is a factor of f(x) , right? now, use long division to find other 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i don't know, I did sythetic division and it came out to x^2+4=0 so the other two should be \[\pm2\] but...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the answer is \[\pm 2i\]

OpenStudy (loser66):

\(\pm 2i\) not \(\pm2\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is what i dont get how is it 2i
