   Binomial
   In elementary algebra, a `binomial` is a polynomial with two terms: the sum of two monomials. It is the simplest kind of polynomial except for a monomial. The binomial a^2 - b^2 can be factored as the product of two other binomials: : a^2 - b^2 = (a + b)(a - b). quad The product of a pair of linear binomials `a x + b` and `c x + d` is: : (a x + b)(c x + d) = a c x^2 + (a d + b c) x + b d. A binomial `a + b` raised to the `nth` power, represe...
