MATHONGO - FORMULA SHEET - Binomial Theorem: A C A N C A X C X C A X

The document provides a formula sheet on the binomial theorem. It lists the statements and terms of the binomial theorem expansion, including the general term and properties of binomial coefficients. It also gives expansions of (1+x)^n and (1-x)^-1 and notes that when n is not a positive integer, the expansion of (1+x)^n contains an infinite number of terms. Additionally, it provides several series involving binomial coefficients.

MATHONGO – FORMULA SHEET – binomial theorem

Statement

x  an  nC0 x n  nC1x n1a  nC2nn2a2  ...... nCnan ,


where n is a positive integer. (r + 1)th term is called the general term and is usually denoted by
Tr 1 .

 Tr 1  nCr x nr a r

(a) The expansion contains (n + 1) terms.

(b) (i)

(d)
th
r term from end in this expansion is (n r  2) th term from the beginning.

(e) 1 xn  nC0  nC1x  nC2 x 2  ........ nCn x n


It is convenient to write the expansion in the form C0  C1x  C2 x  ...... Cn x .
