.. + Mk)! / (M1! M2! ... Mk!) Now, let's express each term in the numerator as a product of binomial coefficients: (M1 + M2 + ... + Mk)! = (M1 + M2)! (M3 + M4)! ... (Mk-1 + Mk)! (M1 + M2 + ... + Mk-k)! We can continue this process until we have expressed every Show more…

Form 1 of the binomial theorem can be proved using form 2 of the binomial theorem. The key step in that proof is showing that the coefficients inside Pascal's triangle are found by adding the two terms above. Prove this fact by showing that $$\left(\begin{array}{l}{n} \\{r}\end{array}\right)=\left(\begin{array}{c}{n-1} \\ {r-1}\end{array}\right)+\left(\begin{array}{c}{n-1} \\{r}\end{array}\right)$$
