Multiplying Polynomials

You have explored the terminology of polynomials, and have explored the adding and subtracting of polynomials. Now it is time to move on to multiplication of polynomials. The first link below explores simple multiplying and the FOIL method, and the second link is devoted to more complex multiplication. Please explore both links and close the new window to come back here.
