Partial Fractions with Irreducible Quadratic Factors

Partial Fractions with Irreducible Quadratic Factors

For an irreducible quadratic:

$$x^2+px+q$$

the corresponding partial-fraction numerator is linear:

$$\frac{Ax+B}{x^2+px+q}$$

Usage

- Used when rational functions contain quadratic factors that cannot be factored over the reals.
