Operations on Polynomials

Big Idea #2: Operations with Polynomials Using a Geometric Context

• 1.a interpret polynomial expressions of varying degrees that represent a quantity in terms of its given geometric context (e.g., interpret polynomial expressions in context as it relates to perimeter, area, and volume) (G.PAR.2.1)

• 1.b prove that polynomials form a system analogous to the integers in that they are closed under addition, subtraction, and multiplication (G.PAR.2.2)

• 1.c perform operations with single variable polynomials (i.e., add, subtract, multiply) using algebraic reasoning (G.PAR.2.3)
