Bing is continuing to build out its educational resources, adding a number of interactive answers for math-related searches.

Since launching search results for an interactive solar system and a periodic table, Bing announced today a new set of educational resources with the rollout of six new interactive answers for math-related searches.

The new interactive answers are attached to searches for “multiplication table” or “times table,” geometry-related searches, a function grapher, number answers, a “number converter” and a “polynomial equation solver.”

Now, a Bing search for “multiplication table” or “times table” will deliver an interactive multiplication table at the top of the results.

The multiplication table shows answers up to 15 x 15, and includes a quiz function. There’s also a print button so that quizzes can be printed for offline use.

The “polynomial equation solver” determines solutions of single-variable polynomial equations.

“Not only does it show the solutions, or ‘roots’ to these equations,” reports Bing, “The solver rewrites the equation in standard form, factorizes the equation when possible, lists the local min/max points, and displays the solutions graphically.”

Bing says its latest round of educational resources is a new milestone in its aim to create “fun, interactive” tools for students.
