WHAT IS POLYNOMIAL ?
Mathematics, a polynomial is an expression consisting of coefficients
variables which are also known as indeterminate.
the name suggests poly means many and nominal means terms,
ce a polynomial means many terms.
ynomials are generally a sum or difference of variables and
onents.
h part of the polynomial is known as a “term”.

Types of Polynomials
ious types of Polynomials based on the number of terms that the polynomial has been,
Types Definition Representation Example
Constant A polynomial of
f(x) = k f(x) = 2
Polynomials degree Zero
olution:
First, find the factor of x2 + 7x +12.
x2 + 7x + 12 = x2 + (4 + 3)x + 12
= x2 + 4x +3x + 12
= x (x + 4) + 3 (x + 4)
= (x + 3)(x + 4)
o, f(x) = (x + 3)(x + 4)
eros of polynomial f(x) are given by f(x) = 0.
x + 3)(x + 4) = 0
= −4 or x = −3
herefore, the zeros of f(x) are −4 and −3.
ELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ZEROES AND COEFFICIENT OF A
OLYNOMIAL.
athematics, algebraic expression with many terms is called a polynomial. We know that,
ding on the degree of the polynomial, the polynomial can be classified into different types,
s linear polynomial (x), quadratic polynomial (x2), and cubic polynomial (x3), and so on.
he degree of the polynomial, we can easily determine the zeros of a polynomial.
relationship between the zeros of the quadratic polynomial and the coefficient of the
tic polynomial is,
y polynomial P(x) = ax2 + bx + c if the zeroes of the quadratic polynomial are α, and β
Polynomial: +β = -
Sum of Roots of a Quadratic Polynomial:α
b/a, where α and β are the zeroes of the quadratic
polynomial ax2 + bx + c.
Product of roots of a quadratic polynomial: αβ=c/a.
where α and β are the zeroes of the quadratic
polynomial ax2 + bx + c.
