Key Topics to Revise

1

Definition and Types of Polynomials

  • A polynomial in x is an algebraic expression of the form axⁿ where a is real, a ≠ 0, and n is a whole number
  • Degree of polynomial = highest power of variable
  • Linear polynomial: degree 1 (ax + b)
2

Value and Zeros of Polynomials

  • Value of p(x) at x = k is denoted as p(k)
  • Zero of polynomial p(x) is value of x where p(x) = 0
  • Real number k is zero of p(x) if p(k) = 0
3

Geometrical Meaning of Zeros

  • Zeros are x-coordinates where graph intersects X-axis
  • Linear polynomial graph intersects X-axis at exactly one point
  • Quadratic polynomial can intersect X-axis at 0, 1, or 2 points
4

Relationship Between Zeros and Coefficients

  • For quadratic ax² + bx + c with zeros α, β:
  • Sum of zeros: α + β = -b/a
  • Product of zeros: αβ = c/a
