Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

please note -2 is not a zero ,it should be 2 is a zero.

by synthetic division

2|  1  4 -10 -4

  |      2  12  4

  |----------------

     1  6   2  | 0

x²+6x+2=0

$x=\frac{-6 \pm \sqrt{36-8} }{2} \\or~x=\frac{-6 \pm2\sqrt{7} }{2} \\or ~x=-3\pm \sqrt{7} \\h(x)=(x-2)(x^2+6x+2)=(x-2)(x-3+\sqrt{7} )(x-3-\sqrt{7})$
