This document defines rational algebraic expressions and provides examples. A rational algebraic expression is a fraction of polynomials where the numerator and denominator are polynomials and the denominator is not equal to zero. The lesson aims to define rational algebraic expressions and identify them through examples and activities to recall knowledge about polynomials and distinguish rational expressions from polynomials.
2. At the end of this lesson, you are expected to:
? define a rational algebraic expression; and
? identify a rational algebraic expression.
