BINOMIAL EXPANSION
![Page 2: Binomial expansion](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071814/55a683901a28ab37498b4743/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
BINOMIAL EXPANSIONS When a binomial of the form 𝑎 + 𝑏 is raised to a power,
the resulting polynomial can be thought of as series.
Suppose we expand several such powers and search
for a pattern:
𝑎 + 𝑏 0 1
𝑎 + 𝑏 1 𝑎 + 𝑏
𝑎 + 𝑏 2 𝑎2 + 2𝑎𝑏 + 𝑏2
𝑎 + 𝑏 3 𝑎3 + 3𝑎2𝑏 + 3𝑎𝑏2 + 𝑏3
𝑎 + 𝑏 4 𝑎4 + 4𝑎3𝑏 + 6𝑎2𝑏2 + 4𝑎𝑏3 + 𝑏4
𝑎 + 𝑏 5 𝑎5 + 5𝑎4𝑏 + 10𝑎3𝑏2 + 10𝑎2𝑏3 + 5𝑎𝑏4 + 𝑏5
𝑎 + 𝑏 6 𝑎6 + 6𝑎5𝑏 + 15𝑎4𝑏2 + 20𝑎3𝑏3 + 15𝑎2𝑏4 + 6𝑎𝑏5 + 𝑏6

In each case we observe the
following:1. There are always 𝑛 + 1 term in the expansion.
2. The exponents on 𝑎 start with 𝑛 and decrease to 0.
3. The exponents on 𝑏 start with 0 and increase to 𝑛.
4. The sum of the exponents in each term is always 𝑛.
5. If 𝑎 and 𝑏 are both positive, all terms are positive.
6. If 𝑎 is positive and 𝑏 is negative, the terms havealternating signs; those with odd powers of 𝑏 arenegative.
7. If 𝑎 is negative and 𝑏 is positive, the terms havealternating signs; those with odd powers of 𝑎 arenegative.
8. If 𝑎 and 𝑏 are both negative, all terms are positive if𝑛 is even and negative if 𝑛 is odd.

PASCAL’S TRIANGLE To discover the pattern of the numerical coefficients of
each term, we write the coefficients in the same
arrangement as in the preceding expansions.
Row 0 1
Row 1 1 1
Row 2 1 2 1
Row 3 1 3 3 1
Row 4 1 4 6 4 1
Row 5 1 5 10 10 5 1
Row 6 1 6 15 20 15 6 1

This triangular array forms what is known as
Pascal’s triangle. The row numbercorresponds to the exponent 𝑛 in the
expansion of 𝑎 + 𝑏 𝑛. The numbers in any row,
other than the first and last which are always
1, can be determined by adding the two
numbers immediately above and to the left
and right of it. Pascal’s triangle gives us one
way to determine the coefficients in the
expansion of given binomial.

Sample Problems1. Expand 2𝑥 + 𝑦 4.
In this example, 𝑛 = 4, 𝑎 = 2𝑥 and 𝑏 = 𝑦. Row 4 ofPascal’s triangle has the following coefficients
1 4 6 4 1
In 𝑎 + 𝑏 4 corresponds to expansion 1𝑎4 + 4𝑎3𝑏 +6𝑎2𝑏2 + 4𝑎𝑏3 + 1𝑏4. We obtain,
𝑎4 + 4𝑎3𝑏 + 6𝑎2𝑏2 + 4𝑎𝑏3 + 𝑏4
2𝑥 4 + 4 2𝑥 3 𝑦 + 6 2𝑥 2 𝑦 2 + 4 2𝑥 𝑦 3 + 𝑦 4
Thus,
2𝑥 + 𝑦 4 = 16𝑥4 + 32𝑥3𝑦 + 24𝑥2𝑦2 + 8𝑥𝑦3 + 𝑦4

2. Expand 𝑧 − 3 5.
In this example, 𝑛 = 5, 𝑎 = 𝑧 and 𝑏 = −3. Since we areexpanding 𝑧 + −3 5, the resulting series alternatesince 𝑏 is negative. From Row 5 of Pascal’s triangle,the coefficients are as follows: 1 5 10 10 5 1and
𝑎 + 𝑏 5 = 1𝑎5 + 5𝑎4𝑏 + 10𝑎3𝑏2 + 10𝑎2𝑏3 + 5𝑎𝑏4 + 1𝑏5
𝑧 − 3 5
= 𝑧 5 + 5 𝑧 4 −3 + 10 𝑧 3 −3 2 + 10 𝑧 2 −3 3 + 5 𝑧 −3 4
+ 𝑧 5
𝑧 − 3 5 = 𝑧5 − 15𝑧4 + 90𝑧3 − 270𝑧2 + 405𝑧4 − 243

3. Expand 𝑎2 − 2𝑏 6.
In this example, 𝑛 = 6, 𝑎 = 𝑎2 and 𝑏 = −2𝑏, form Row6 of Pascal’s triangle, the coefficients are thefollowing:
1 6 15 20 15 6 1
And𝑎 + 𝑏 6=1𝑎6 + 6𝑎5𝑏 + 15𝑎4𝑏2 + 20𝑎3𝑏3 + 15𝑎2𝑏4 + 6𝑎𝑏5 + 1𝑏6
𝑎2 − 2𝑏 6= 𝑎2 6 + 6 𝑎2 5 −2𝑏 + 15 𝑎2 4 −2𝑏 2 +20 𝑎2 3 −2𝑏 3 + 15 𝑎2 2 −2𝑏 4 + 6 𝑎2 −2𝑏 5 +−2𝑏 6
𝑎2 − 2𝑏 6 = 𝑎12 − 12𝑎10𝑏 + 60𝑎8𝑏2 − 160𝑎6𝑏3 + 240𝑎4𝑏4 − 192𝑎2𝑏5 + 64𝑏6
