Lesson 1 – Sequences
A sequence is a set of numbers written in a specific order.
Lesson 2 – Arithmetic Sequences
An arithmetic sequence is a sequence where each succeeding term is obtained by adding a
fixed number. The fixed number is called the common difference which is denoted as d.
𝑎𝑛 = 𝑎1 + (𝑛 − 1)𝑑
Lesson 3 – Geometric Sequences
A Geometric Sequence, also known as Geometric Progression, is a set of terms in which each term
after the first is obtained by multiplying the preceding term by the same fixed number called the
Common Ratio which is commonly represented by r.
𝑎𝑛 = 𝑎1 𝑟 𝑛−1
Lesson 4 – Division of Polynomials
Long Division
1. Arrange the terms of the dividend and divisor in decreasing powers. If there are missing
terms, write them with a coefficient of zero.
2. Divide the first term of the dividend by the first term of the divisor to get the first term of the
quotient.
3. Multiply the result in step 2 by the divisor.
4. Subtract the result from step 3. Bring down the next term of the dividend.
5. Repeat the entire process using the result in step 4 as the new dividend.
6. Express the result as:
𝑑𝑖𝑣𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑛𝑑 𝑟𝑒𝑚𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑟
= 𝑞𝑢𝑜𝑡𝑖𝑒𝑛𝑡 +
𝑑𝑖𝑣𝑖𝑠𝑜𝑟 𝑑𝑖𝑣𝑖𝑠𝑜𝑟
Lesson 5 – Remainder and Factor Theorem
The Remainder Theorem states that if the polynomial P(x) is divided by x - r, then the remainder is
P(r). While the Factor Theorem states that if the remainder comes out to be 0 (zero), then x - r is a
factor of P(x).
Lesson 6 – Factoring Polynomials
The Rational Root Theorem states that the theorem provides a complete list of possible rational
roots of the polynomial equation whose all coefficients are integers.
