Binomial expander

Expand a binomial power into its polynomial coefficients.

How to use this calculator

Replace (x+1) or its exponent inside the expand command; the starter expands the fourth power.

Tap the math below to edit it and see the result. Once a result is ready, press Tab on a hardware keyboard to accept it. Outside a matrix, Return completes the line; the phone math keyboard has the same Return action.

Try it here

expand⁡((x+1)4)\operatorname{expand}\left((x+1)^4\right)

What to know

Polynomial expansion can grow very large; a noninteger exponent does not give a finite binomial polynomial.

Mathlean combines visual mathematical input with computation and canvas tools. Results depend on the expression and available engine support; check important answers independently.
