Binomial Theorem Class 11

The document discusses the binomial theorem and its applications. Some key points: - The binomial theorem expresses the expansion of powers of binomial expressions in terms of binomial coefficients. - It states that the number of terms in the expansion of (a + b)n is n + 1 and provides a formula for calculating each term. - Problems apply the binomial theorem to expand expressions and find specific terms and coefficients. Properties of the coefficients and binomial coefficients are also discussed. - The multinomial theorem, a generalization of the binomial theorem, is introduced for expanding expressions with more than two terms.
