Suppose that pn is a sequence of polynomials converging uniformly to f on [0,1] and f is not a polynomial. Prove that the degrees of the pn are not bounded.

Hint: An Nth-degree polynomial p is uniquely determined by its values at N + 1 points via Lagrange's interpolation formula.

Let f(x) and g(x) be polynomials and suppose that we have f(a) = g(a) for all real numbers a. In this case prove that f(x) and g(x) have exactly the same coefficients. [Hint: Consider the polynomial h(x) = f(x) − g(x). If h(x) has at least one nonzero coefficient then the equation h(x) = 0 has finitely many solutions.]
