Slide Number 4

Pre-requisites

www.spoken-tutorial.org

To follow this tutorial, learner should be familiar with GeoGebra interface.

For the prerequisite GeoGebra tutorials, please visit this website.

Let us first define a polynomial.
Slide Number 5

Polynomial

An algebraic expression containing one or more terms with non-zero coefficients is a polynomial.

For example

x cube plus 3 x squared plus 2 x minus 5 is a polynomial.

Cursor on GeoGebra interface. I have already opened the GeoGebra interface.
Point to the input bar. For this tutorial we will use input bar to solve the polynomials.
Let us first start with slope of a polynomial.
Type r(x)=3x-3 >> press Enter.


Point to Algebra and Graphics views.

In the input bar type,

r within brackets x is equal to 3x minus 3

and press Enter.


The linear polynomial is displayed in the Algebra and Graphics views.

Type Slope(r) >> press Enter. Now type Slope within brackets r and press Enter.
Point to the slope of line and Algebra view. Slope of r is shown on the line and in the Algebra view.
Now we will define the degree of a polynomial.
Slide Number 6

Degree of polynomial

The highest power of the variable in a polynomial, is the degree of the polynomial.

For example,

p is equal to x raised to the power of 5 minus x raised to the power of 4 plus 3

In this polynomial, degree is '5'.

Let’s try some more examples to find the degree of polynomials.
Type Degree(3x^7+4x^6+x+9) In the input bar type, Degree.


In place of polynomial type,


3x raised to the power of 7 plus 4x raised to the power of 6 plus x plus 9


Press Enter.

Point the value in the Algebra view. The degree of the polynomial is displayed in the Algebra view as 7.

point to the Algebra view.

Similarly degree of the polynomial,

5x raised to the power of 5 minus 4x squared minus 6 is 5.

p(3)=5(3)^2-3(3)+7 = 43

Now we will find the values of p of 0, p of 1, p of 2 and p of 3.
