1 Class X: Maths Chapter 2: Polynomials Top Concepts: 1. The graph of a polynomial p(x) of degree n can intersects or touch the x axis at atmost n points. 2. 3. 4. A polynomial of degree n has at most n distinct real zeroes. The zero of the polynomial p(x) satisfies the equation p(x) = 0. For any linear polynomial ax + b‚ zero of the polynomial will be given by the expression (-b/a). 5. The number of real zeros of the polynomial is the number of times its graph touches or intersects x axis. 6. 7
