Worksheet For class 10

Summary

An algebraic expression f(x) of the form f(x)= a₀x²+…….+a_n xⁿ ,where a₀, a_1, a₂……. a_n are real numbers and all the index of x are non negative integers is called polynomial in x and the highest index n is called as the degree of polynomial.

IMPORTANT FORMULAS

• (x+a)² =x² +2ax+a²
• (x-a)² =x² – 2ax +a²
• x²-a² =(x+a) (x-a)
• x³+a³=(x+a) (x²-ax+a²)=(x+a)³ –3xa(x+a)
• x³-a³=(x-a) (x²+ax+a²)=(x+a)³ +3xa(x-a)
• (a + b + c) ²=a²+b²+c²+2ab+2bc+2ac
• (a + b) ³= a³+b³+3ab (a + b)
• (a-b) ³= a³-b³-3ab (a-b)
• a³+b³+c³-3abc = (a +b +c) (a²+b²+c²-ab-bc-ca)

SPECIAL CASE : If a+ b +c=0 then a³+b³+c³ = 3abc

ZEROS OR ROOTS OF A POLYNOMIAL

A real number ‘a’ is a zero of a polynomial f(x),if f(a)=0.Here ‘a’ is called a root of the equation f(x) = 0

FACTOR THEOREM

Let p(x) be a polynomial of degree greater than or equal to ‘a’, be a real number such that p(a)=0,then (x-a) is a factor of p(x),then p(a)=0.

REMAINDER THEOREM

Let p(x) be any polynomial of degree greater than or equal to one and ‘a’ be any real number. If p(x)is a dividend by (x-a),then remainder is equal to p(a).let q(x) be the quotient and r(x) be the remainder when p(x) is divided by (x-a),then

Dividend=Divisor x Quotient + Remainder
