Special Polynomials Products 1

Here's a special video for special polynomial products. By watching the educational video, pupils first review how to multiply binomials using FOIL. They then learn about the difference of squares pattern and how to square binomials.

First clarifying that people need to "resist every temptation on earth" when squaring a binomial, Sal walks viewers through a few equations using binomials and applies the skills from the previous videos about working with polynomials....

Without ever relying on the FOIL trick, this presentation carefully walks young algebrists through multiplying binomials by a monomial and by each other. Examples start easy, but move into complicated pairings of coefficients, positives...

Can you multiply a monomial by a polynomial? Yes you can, if you use the distributive property. Sal describes how to distribute the monomial term over the entire polynomial expression. He does a wonderful job explaining this concept.

After a short review on exponents, Sal moves ahead to incorporate exponent properties into his sample problems. This video is a great resource for those who need both the steady pace of Sal's instruction, and also for those who need the...

Everyone can be shortcut-savvy with this video, which features Sal multiplying "a ton of polynomials" in clear, easily understandable terms. Those who have a hard time applying old concepts to new equations will rest assured with the...

Use the associative property of multiplication to regroup the like terms in this polynomial multiplication expression. Then multiply the terms and make sure it is in simplest form.

FOIL it! What? You want to multiply two binomials then use the FOIL method: First, Outside, Inside, Last. When you have done that, your final steps is to combine the like terms.

Use the associative property of multiplication to regroup the like terms in this polynomial multiplication expression. Then multiply the terms and make sure it is in simplest form.

The instructor shows several different examples of the power of a product rule. She multiplies the values out, uses the commutative property of multiplication, and then simplifies the terms.
