Polynomials
This chapter develops the idea of a polynomial in one variable — its degree, types (linear, quadratic, cubic), and the meaning of a zero of a polynomial. It explains the geometrical meaning of zeroes as the points where the graph meets the x-axis, establishes the relationship between the zeroes and the coefficients of quadratic and cubic polynomials, shows how to form a polynomial from its zeroes, and covers the division algorithm for polynomials (retained by many State Boards). It is a high-scoring, concept-plus-computation chapter important for both CBSE and State Board examinations.
