Question

The degree of the term with the $\_\_\_\_$degree denotes the degree of the polynomial.

Answer 1

The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of the variable in any term of the polynomial.

Example;- The degree of the polynomial $x^5+6x^2-2$ in the variable $x$ is $5$since this is the highest power of $x$ in the terms.

Hence, the degree of the term with the greatest degree denotes the degree of the polynomial.
