About this document
Understanding the Binomial Theorem by geni is a document available to read on EtoBox.
(1) The binomial theorem helps calculate the rational powers of any binomial expression involving two terms, and has applications in interest calculation, population growth, probability, calculus, and approximations. (2) It was known to ancient Indian and Greek mathematicians for some cases, and was later generalized to rational exponents by Omar Khayyam and Isaac Newton. (3) This document introduces the binomial theorem and principle of mathematical induction, which is used to prove the binomial theorem.
