*Polynomial 5x2 + 2y – 7
*Polynomial Equation x2- 3x +2 =0
*Polynomial Function f(x) = x2 – 3x +2

NOT POLYNOMIAL FUNCTION:

NEGATIVE EXPONENT
EXPONENT IS NOT A WHOLE NUMBER
CANNOT BE A RADICAND
VARIABLE CANNOT BE IN THE DEMINATOR

A polynomial function is written in standard form if its terms are

arranged in descending order of powers.

Graphs of Poly Functions

*If the RIGHT HAND of the graph tends UPWARD, the graph is
INCREASING and if the RIGHT HAND of the graph tends
DOWNWARD then the graph is DECREASING

*If the value of the leading coefficient is POSITIVE (𝒂𝒏 > 𝟎), the
graph is increasing and decreasing if the value of the leading
coefficient is NEGATIVE (𝒂𝒏 < 𝟎).

The number of possible turns of the graph is its degree less than 1
(degree n – 1). For example, if the degree of the polynomial function is
4, then the number of turns the graph might have is 3.
END BEHAVIOR

In the graph of an EVEN-degree polynomial that is INCREASING, the

left hand is RISING and the right hand is also RISING. While in an
EVEN-degree polynomial that is DECREASING, the left hand is
FALLING and the right hand is FALLING as well.

In the graph of an ODD-degree polynomial that is INCREASING, the

left hand is FALLING and the right hand is also RISING. While in an
ODD-degree polynomial that is DECREASING, the left hand is RISING
and the right hand is FALLING as well.
X AND Y INTERCEPTS

The y-intercept is the point where the graph crosses the y-axis and
can be found by substituting x = 0. The x-intercepts are points where
the graph crosses the x-axis and can be found by making the function
equal to zero and solving for x.

Parts of Circle

A circle is a set of points on a given plane, which is equidistant from a

fixed point called the center. In naming a circle we use its center.

Radius
a line segment from the center to
any point around the circle, two or
more radius is called radii.

Chord
a line segment whose endpoints are on the circle,
it does not pass through the center of the circle.

Secant Line
is a line that intersects a circle at exactly TWO POINTS
and contains a chord.

Tangent Line
a line the intersects the circle at exactly
one point called the point of tangency.
Arcs of a Circle
Angles of a Circle
An angle is a figure formed by two non-collinear rays. We usually name
angle using the vertex

Secants, Tangents, Segments, and Sectors of a Circle

Sector – may be defined as part of a circle

enclosed by two radii and an arc

Segment - region bounded by an arc and the

segment joining its endpoints.

Tangents of a circle – a line intersects a circle in exactly one point,

then it is tangent line. The point of intersection is called
the point of tangency.

Secant of a circle – line intersecting at exactly two points is called a

secant line, also a secant line contains a chord of a circle .
