 Content Standard
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSA.APR.A.1
1. Understand that polynomials form a system analogous to the integers, namely, they are closed
under the operations of addition, subtraction, and multiplication; add, subtract, and multiply.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSA.APR.B.2
2. Know and apply the Remainder Theorem. Understand the relationship between zeros and factors
of polynomials.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSA.APR.B.3
3. Identify zeros of polynomials when suitable factorization are available, and use the zeros to
construct a rough graph of the function defined by the polynomial
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSA.APR.C.4
4. Prove polynomial identities and use them to describe numerical relationships.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSA.APR.C.5
5. (+) Know and apply the Binomial Theorem for the expansion of (x + y)n in powers of x and y
for a positive integer n, where x and y are any numbers, with coefficients determined for example by
Pascal’s Triangle. Rewrite rational expressions. [Linear and quadratic denominators]

 CATAGORIES
A polynomial of degree two is called a quadratic polynomial.
f(x) = √3x2 – 4/3x + ½, q(w) = 2/3w2 + 4 are quadratic polynomials with
real coefficients.
Any quadratic polynomial is always in the form:-
ax2 + bx +c where a,b,c are real nos. and a ≠ 0.

• A polynomial of degree three is called a cubic polynomial.

• f(x) = 5x3 – 2x2 + 3x -1/5 is a cubic polynomial in variable x.
• Any cubic polynomial is always in the form f(x = ax3 + bx2
+cx + d where a,b,c,d are real nos.

 It may be a monomial or a binomial.
F(x) = 2x – 3 is binomial
whereas g (x) = 7x is monomial
