Study Notes

Vectors in Mathematics

A vector is a mathematical object with both magnitude and direction.

Vector Operations

When two vectors are added together, their corresponding components are added separately.

Vector Quantities

Examples of vector quantities include displacement, velocity, and acceleration.

Binomial Theorem for Positive Integer Indices

The binomial theorem is a formula for the expansion of powers of a binomial.

Binomial Expansions

$(a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2$
$(a + b)^3 = a^3 + 3a^2b + 3ab^2 + b^3$
$(a + b)^4 = a^4 + 4a^3b + 6a^2b^2 + 4ab^3 + b^4$
$(a + b)^5 = a^5 + 5a^4b + 10a^3b^2 + 10a^2b^3 + 5ab^4 + b^5$
