Let P(z) and Q(z) be two polynomials of the same degree n. If P(z) and Q(z) are apolar and if one of then has all its zeros in a circular region C, then according to a famous result known as Grace's Apolarity Theorem, the other will have at least one zero in C. In this paper we relax the condition that P(z) and Q(z) are of the same degree and present some generalizations of Grace's Apolarity theorem for the case when the circular region C is a closed half-plane. As an application of these results, we also generalize some results of Walsh and Szegö.
