3. • Algebraic Expressions- Algebraic expression is a
collection or combination of constant and variables of one or
more terms, which are separated by fundamental operations
• Terms- various parts of an algebraic expressions separated
by + or – signs are called Terms.
• Constant- A term of an algebraic expression which has a
fixed numerical value and does not have any variable is called
constant term of the expression.
• Variables- Variables are represented by letters of the English
alphabet like x, y, z, a, b, c etc.
• Co-efficient- In a term of an algebraic expression, each of
the factors with the sign of the term is called a coefficient of the
product of the factors.
7. ALGEBRAIC
EXPRESSION
1. MONOMIAL: AN ALGEBRAIC EXPRESSION WHICH CONSISTS OF ONLY ONE
NON-ZERO TERM IS CALLED MONOMIAL. FOR EXAMPLE, 3Y
2. BINOMIAL: AN ALGEBRAIC EXPRESSION WHICH CONSISTS OF TWO NON-
ZERO TERM IS CALLED BINOMIAL. FOR EXAMPLE, 3X + Y
3. TRINOMIAL: AN ALGEBRAIC EXPRESSION WHICH CONSISTS OF THREE
NON-ZERO TERM IS CALLED TRINOMIAL. FOR EXAMPLE, 2A2 + 5A – 4
4. POLYNOMIAL: AN ALGEBRAIC EXPRESSION WHICH CONSISTS OF ONE,
TWO, THREE OR MORE NON-ZERO TERMS IS CALLED POLYNOMIAL. FOR
EXAMPLE,
2A2 + 5A – 4, 5M3 + 2M2 + 8M + 7 ETC
DEGREE OF A POLYNOMIAL: THE DEGREE OF A POLYNOMIAL IS THE HIGHEST
POWER OF ITS VARIOUS TERMS. FOR EXAMPLE, 2X2 – 3X5 + 5X6 , DEGREE
OF THE POLYNOMIAL IS 6
31. Proving Algebraic
Identity Expansion
Geometrically
In this section, we are going to see,
how to prove the expansions of
algebraic identities geometrically.
Let us consider algebraic identity and
its expansion given below.
(a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2
We can prove the the expansion of (a
+ b)2 using the area of a square as
shown below.

33. GEOMETRIC PROOF OF IDENTITY 3: a2 – b2 = (a+b) (a-b)
• Geometric proof of (a+b) (a-b)
34. ALGEBRAIC IDENTITIES
• (a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2
• (a - b)2 = a2 - 2ab + b2
• (a + b)(a - b) = a2 – b2
• (x + a)(x – b) = x2 + (a + b)x + ab
