The Binomial Theorem
Investigate patterns in the binomial theorem. Pupils begin by reviewing the coefficients from Pascal's triangle. They look at the individual terms, the sums of the coefficients on a row, and the alternating sum of each row. Individuals...

The Binomial Theorem
Sometimes, there is a better way. Scholars develop Pascal's triangle as a method to arrive at the coefficients of binomial expansions as an easier method to expand binomials. The learners connect the formula for binomial coefficients to...

Binomial Expansion—Shortcut Please
There has got to be a better way; you just have to find it! Given a general binomial to expand with increasing powers, pupils realize that there must be a better way than multiple multiplications. Classmates look for patterns and use...
