Binomial Theorem
The Binomial theorem is used to expand out brackets of

the form (a+b)n, where n is a whole number.
Binomial Expansion
n (a+b)n Coefficients
0 (a+b)0=1 1
1 (a+b)0=a+b 1, 1
2 (a+b)2=a2+2ab+b2 1, 2, 1
3 (a+b)3=a3+3a2b+3ab2+b3 1, 3, 3, 1
4 (a+b)4=a4+4a3b+6a2b2+4ab3+b4 1, 4, 6, 4, 1
Pascal’s Triangle
Important observations
1. The expansion of (a+b)n has (n+1) terms.

2. In each term, sum of indices of a and b is n. (a ↑ from 0 to n and b ulta)
3. nC = nCn-r, nC0=nCn, nC1 = nCn-1
r
(Coefficient of terms are equidistant from the beginning and end.)
