Study Notes
Algebraic Identities and Polynomials
- The product of the sum and difference of two terms x and y is (x + y)(x - y) = x² - y².
Squares of Binomials
- The algebraic identity for the square of a binomial (x + y) is (x + y)² = x² + 2xy + y².
- The algebraic identity for the square of a binomial (x - y) is (x - y)² = x² - 2xy + y².
Polynomials
- A polynomial in one variable is an expression consisting of variables, coefficients, and constants combined using addition, subtraction, and multiplication, but not division.
Variables in Algebra
- A variable in algebra is a symbol that represents a value that can change or vary, often represented by letters such as x, y, or z.
