We already have a much better article at polynomial. The thrust of this new article seems to be that you can use synthetic division and the remainder theorem to find the value of a polynomial function at x=c. This is completely back-to-front - in practice, evaluating the polynomial function is simpler than synthetic division, so you use the value of the polynomial at x=c to find the remainder when the polynomial is divided by x−c.
