Legendre polynomials are a set of orthogonal polynomials that arise in the solution of Legendre's differential equation, which is a second-order linear ordinary differential equation. These polynomials are significant in various fields such as physics and engineering, especially in problems involving spherical symmetry, as they appear in the expansion of functions in terms of angular coordinates.
