Question

Classify the following algebraic expression into monomial, binomial or trinomial

$z^2$

Answer 1

Classifying the algebraic expression

We know that

A polynomial that contains only one term is called a monomial.

A polynomial that contains only two-term is called a binomial.

A polynomial that contains only three terms is called a trinomial.

An algebraic expression $z^2$ contains only one term so, it is classified as monomial.

Hence, the algebraic expression $z^2$ is monomial.
