BINOMIAL THEOREM

1. Statement of Binomial theorem : If a, b  R and n  N, then


(a + b)n = nC 0 anb 0 + nC 1 an–1 b 1 + nC 2 an–2 b 2 +...+ nC r an–r b r +...+ nC n a0 b n
n

=  Cr an r b r
r 0

2. Properties of Binomial Theorem :


(i) General term : T r+1 = nC r an–r b r
(ii) Middle term (s) :
(a) If n is even, there is only one middle term,

n2
which is   th term.
 2 
(b) If n is odd, there are two middle terms,

 n  1 n1 
which are   th and   1 th terms.

Here total number of terms in the expansion = C k–1

4. Application of Binomial Theorem :


n
If ( A  B) =  + f where  and n are positive integers, n being odd and

0 < f < 1 then ( + f) f = k n where A – B 2 = k > 0 and A – B < 1.


If n is an even integer, then ( + f) (1 – f) = k n

5. Properties of Binomial Coefficients :


n
(i) C 0 + nC 1 + nC 2 + ........+ nC n = 2 n

n
(ii) C 0 – nC 1 + nC 2 – nC 3 + ............. + (–1)n nC n = 0

n
(iii) C 0 + nC 2 + nC 4 + .... = nC 1 + nC 3 + nC 5 + .... = 2 n–1
