Introduction to Polynomials (Senior, Mathematics)

More than just a worksheet, this guide provides the description of many of the polynomials theorems to assist the learners. Starting with synthetic division, class members are then guided through the remainder theorem and linear factors. 

Use this video to build mathematical vocabulary through practical application. Sal breaks down the parts of a polynomial expression, identifying the coefficient and exponents while he defines them.

Polynomials don't need to be a mystery. Pupils watch a clarifying video that first explains how to distinguish between monomials, binomials, trinomials, and polynomials. The video then shows how to identify the degree of a term, the...

Though it "sounds like a really fancy word," polynomials prove to be no match for Sal's mathematical skills. After defining the term and providing a few examples, Sal works through a few equations that add or subtract polynomials,...

The instructor defines a prime polynomial as much the same as a prime number: they only have two factors, 1 and itself. She further demonstrates what a composite polynomial is to give an example of a polynomial that is not prime.

Monomials, binomials, and trinomials—what comes next? An informative videos cover the basic requirements of a polynomial. Six problem videos cover writing polynomials in descending order, identifying degrees and terminology, evaluating...

Set the standard for working with polynomials. Pupils arrange two polynomial expressions in standard form. The scholars respond to questions about the terms, coefficients, and degrees of the polynomials. They then discuss how they can...

Getting the vocabulary straight is the first step to understanding polynomials. The video provides the basic vocabulary to describe polynomials. The resource links the vocabulary to the classification of polynomials both by degree and...

Investigate polynomial multiplication with the TI-nspire handheld calculator. Using the applications on this calculator, learners explore multiplication of numbers, binomials, a binomial by a polynomial, and polynomials. The dynamic...

A polynomial is the sum of one or more monomials. They are identified by the number of terms they have. Monomials, binomials, trinomials, find out what these terms identify.
