x2(3+3i)x+(2+3i)

Explanation:

A zero, say a of a polynomial f(x) is one for which f(a)=0.

Let us assume that zeros are {a,b,c,d}, then it is apparent that such a polynomial could be (xa)(xb)(xc)(xd).

As we need to write a polynomial with zeros 1 and 2+3i, the polynomial is

(x1)(x23i) or

x(x23i)1(x23i) or

x22x3ixx+2+3i or

x23x3ix+2+3i or

x2(3+3i)x+(2+3i)
