Binomial expansion was today's lesson. The students had to expand a binomial to a certain power. Instead of multiplying the binomials out, which take a long time, they did it using Pascal's Triangle. Each student needs a copy of Pascal's Triangle for the assignment, quiz, and test. A copy was given to them in class. If another copy is needed, there is one in the lesson notes. You can also google it and print one out. The assignment was Binomial Expansion Worksheet.
