I WANT TO THANK “MA’AM


MENKA” WHO GAVE ME THE
OPPORTUNINTY TO PREPARE A
PROJECT ON A TOPIC OF OUR
OWN WHICH HELPED ME REVISE
THE CHAPTER, TOO.
WHAT ARE POLYNOMIALS ACTUALLY ?
An Expression of More than Two Algebraic Terms, Especially
the Sum of Several Terms that Contain Different Powers of
the Same Variable(s).

Example - 2y^2 – 3y + 4 , 4x + 2, etc.


Degree Of A Polynomial - What IS IT?
If p(x) is a Polynomial in x, The Highest Power of x in
p(x) is called The Degree of the Polynomial p(x).

For example, 4x + 2 is a polynomial in the variable x of


degree 1,

2y 2 – 3y + 4 is a polynomial in the variable y of degree


2,

5x 3 – 4x 2 + x – 2 is a polynomial in the variable x of


degree 3 and

7u 6 – 3 4 2 4 8 2 u u u + + − is a polynomial in the
variable u of degree 6.
Types OF POLYNOMIALS ON THE BASIS OF DEGREE
1. Linear Polynomial - A polynomial of degree 1 is
called a linear polynomial. EXAMPLE - 2x – 3
2. Quadratic Polynomial - A polynomial of degree 2 is
called a quadratic polynomial. EXAMPLE - 2x^2+3x+1
3. Cubic Polynomial - A polynomial of degree 3 is
called a cubic polynomial. EXAMPLE - ax^3 + bx^2 +
cx + d
4. Bi-quadratic Polynomial - A Polynomial of degree 4
is called a biquadratic polynomial. Example - 3x^4+1
Zero Of a Polynomial
A real number “k” is said to be a zero of a polynomial p(x), if
p(k) = 0.

In general, if k is a zero of p(x) = ax + b, then p(k) = ak + b =


0, i.e., k=-b/a

So, the zero of the linear polynomial ax + b is (Constant term)


/Coefficient of x = -b/a.

Thus, the zero of a linear polynomial is related to its


coefficients.
Relationship between Zeroes and Coefficients
of a Polynomial
In general, if α* and β* are the zeroes of the quadratic polynomial
p(x) = ax^2 + bx + c, a ≠ 0, then you know that x – α and x – β are
the factors of p(x).Therefore,

ax^2 + bx + c = k(x – α) (x – β), where k is a constant

= k[x 2 – (α + β)x + α β] = kx2 – k(α + β)x + k α β

Comparing the coefficients of x 2 , x and constant terms on both


the sides, we get a = k, b = – k(α + β) and c = kαβ.

α + β = –b/a , αβ = c/a
Division Algorithm for Polynomials
Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder, It’s Similar
TO The Euclid’s Division Algorithm.

If p(x) and g(x) are any two polynomials with g(x) ≠ 0,


then we can find polynomials q(x) and r(x) such that
p(x) = g(x) × q(x) + r(x),

where r(x) = 0 or degree of r(x) < degree of g(x). This


result is known as the Division Algorithm for
polynomials.
Summary
1. Polynomials of degrees 1, 2 and 3 are called
linear, quadratic and cubic polynomials respectively.
2. A quadratic polynomial in x with real coefficients
is of the form ax2 + bx + c, where a, b, c are real
numbers with a ≠ 0.
3. The zeroes of a polynomial p(x) are precisely the
x-coordinates of the points, where the graph of y =
p(x) intersects the x -axis.
4. A quadratic polynomial can have at most 2 zeroes
and a cubic polynomial can have at most 3 zeroes.
Summary
5. If α and β are the zeroes of the quadratic polynomial
ax2 + bx + c, then
α +β = −b/a, αβ = c/a.
6. If α, β, γ are the zeroes of the cubic polynomial ax^3
+ bx^2 + cx + d, then
α + β + γ = -b/a
αβ+ β γ + γ α = c/a and αβ γ = -d/a
7. The division algorithm states that given any
polynomial p(x) and any non-zero polynomial g(x), there
are polynomials q(x) and r(x) such that
p(x) = g(x) q(x) + r(x), where r(x) = 0 or
degree r(x) < degree g(x).
