Multiplying Polynomials
Objectives
Use binomial expansion to expand
binomial expressions that are raised to
positive integer powers.
Holt McDougal Algebra 2
Multiplying Polynomials
Notice the coefficients of the variables in the final
product of (a + b)3. these coefficients are the numbers
from the third row of Pascal's triangle.
Each row of Pascal’s triangle gives the coefficients of the
corresponding binomial expansion. The pattern in the table
can be extended to apply to the expansion of any binomial
of the form (a + b)n, where n is a whole number.

Multiplying Polynomials
This information is formalized by the Binomial
Theorem, which you will study further in Chapter 11.
