Answer: Zero
Polynomial consists of two terms, Poly means many and Nominal means terms, respectively. A polynomial is defined as an expression made up of variables, constants and exponents, which are combined using mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
The degree of a polynomial within a polynomial is known as the highest degree of a monomial. Therefore a polynomial equation that has one variable that has the largest exponent is considered a polynomial degree.
Given: √2
√2 can be written as
√2 = √2 ✕ x0
The degree of the polynomial is zero since the highest degree of the polynomial is zero.
