ASSIGNMENT
Mathematics(Class IX)
Chapter 2: Polynomials

SYNOPSIS

• Polynomials: An algebraic expression in which each term is of the form kxn where k
is any constant and n is a whole number is called polynomial.
• Degree of a polynomial in one variable: In case of a polynomial in one variable, the
highest power of the variable is called the degree of the polynomial.
• Degree of a polynomial in two or more variables: in case of polynomials in more
than one variable, the sum of the powers of the variables in each term is taken up and
the highest sum so obtained is called the degree of the polynomial.
Types of polynomials on the basis of degree:
• Linear polynomial: A polynomial of degree 1 is called a linear polynomial.
• Quadratic polynomial: A polynomial of degree 2 is called a quadratic polynomial.
• Cubic polynomial: A polynomial of degree 3 is called a cubic polynomial.
• Biquadratic Polynomial: A polynomial of degree 4 is called a biquadratic
polynomial.
Types of Polynomials on the basis of number of terms:
• Monomial: A polynomial containing one non-zero term is called a monomial.
• Binomial: A polynomial containing two non-zero terms is called a binomial.
• Trinomial: A polynomial containing three non-zero terms is called a trinomial.
• Constant polynomial: A polynomial containing one term only, consisting of a
constant is called a constant polynomial.
• Zero polynomial: A polynomial consisting of one term, namely zero only , is called a
zero polynomial.
• Remainder Theorem: Let f(x) be a polynomial of degree n ≥ 1 and let a be any real
number. When f(x) is divided by (x – a), then the remainder is f(a)
• Factor Theorem: Let f(x) be a polynomial of degree n > 1 and let a be any real
number.
a. If f(a) = 0 then (x – a) is a factor of f(x).
b. If (x – a) is a factor of f(x) then f(a) = 0.
• Algebraic Identities:
a. (x + y)2 = x2 + 2xy + y2
b. (x – y)2 = x2 – 2xy + y2
c. x2 – y2 = (x + y)(x – y)
d. (x + a)(x + b) = x2 + (a + b)x + ab
e. (x + y +z)2 = x2 + y2 + z2 + 2xy +2yz +2zx
f. (x + y)3 = x3 + y3 + 3xy(x + y) = x3 + y3 + 3x2y + 3xy2
g. (x – y)3 = x3 – y3 – 3xy(x – y) = x3 - y3 - 3x2y + 3xy2
h. x3 + y3 = (x + y)(x2 – xy +y2)
i. x3 - y3 = (x - y)(x2 + xy +y2)
j. x3 + y3 + z3 – 3xyz = (x + y + z)(x2 + y2 + z2 – xy – yz – zx)
