  2. Algebra tile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebra_tile

    As with the monomials, one would set up the sides of the rectangle to be the factors and then fill in the rectangle with the algebra tiles. [2] This method of using algebra tiles to multiply polynomials is known as the area model [3] and it can also be applied to multiplying monomials and binomials with each other.

  3. FOIL method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FOIL_method

    In elementary algebra, FOIL is a mnemonic for the standard method of multiplying two binomials [1] —hence the method may be referred to as the FOIL method. The word FOIL is an acronym for the four terms of the product: First ("first" terms of each binomial are multiplied together)

  4. Gröbner basis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gröbner_basis

    For every monomial ordering, the empty set of polynomials is the unique Gröbner basis of the zero ideal. For every monomial ordering, a set of polynomials that contains a nonzero constant is a Gröbner basis of the unit ideal (the whole polynomial ring). Conversely, every Gröbner basis of the unit ideal contains a nonzero constant.

  5. Binomial (polynomial) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_(polynomial)

    A binomial is a polynomial which is the sum of two monomials. A binomial in a single indeterminate (also known as a univariate binomial) can be written in the form , where a and b are numbers, and m and n are distinct non-negative integers and x is a symbol which is called an indeterminate or, for historical reasons, a variable.

  6. Monomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monomial

    In mathematics, a monomial is, roughly speaking, a polynomial which has only one term.Two definitions of a monomial may be encountered: A monomial, also called a power product or primitive monomial, [1] is a product of powers of variables with nonnegative integer exponents, or, in other words, a product of variables, possibly with repetitions. [2]

  7. Monic polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monic_polynomial

    In this case, a polynomial may be said to be monic, if it has 1 as its leading coefficient (for the monomial order). For every definition, a product of monic polynomials is monic, and, if the coefficients belong to a field , every polynomial is associated to exactly one monic polynomial.

  8. Horner's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horner's_method

    Thus, multiplying by 2 is calculated in base-2 by an arithmetic shift. The factor (2 −1) is a right arithmetic shift, a (0) results in no operation (since 2 0 = 1 is the multiplicative identity element), and a (2 1) results in a left arithmetic shift. The multiplication product can now be quickly calculated using only arithmetic shift ...

  9. Multinomial theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multinomial_theorem

    This proof of the multinomial theorem uses the binomial theorem and induction on m.. First, for m = 1, both sides equal x 1 n since there is only one term k 1 = n in the sum. For the induction step, suppose the multinomial theorem holds for m.
