Degree of Polynomials

The highest value of the exponent in the expression is known as Degree of Polynomial. The degree of a polynomial is the largest exponent. It is also known as an order of the polynomial. While finding the degree of the polynomial, the polynomial powers of the variables should be either in ascending or descending order.
  1. Linear Polynomial: If the expression is of degree one then it is called a linear polynomial. For Example 5x+2,50z+3.
  2. Quadratic Polynomial: If the expression is of degree two then it is called a quadratic polynomial.For Example  2x^{2}+4x,3x^{2}+3x+3 .
  3. Cubic Polynomial: If the expression is of degree three then it is called a cubic polynomial.For Example  2x^{3}+5x,8y^{3}+6y+3 .
Example: Classify these polynomials by their degree:
  1.  7z^{3}+5z^{2}+1
  2.  5x-4
  3.  6x^{5}+8x^{3}-1
  4.  15y^{2}
