Solution

The correct option is A True

A polynomial is defined as an expression that is composed of variables, constants, and exponents, that are combined using mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Based on the number of terms present in the expression, it is classified as

  • Monomial – A monomial is an expression that contains only one term.
  • Binomial – A binomial is a polynomial expression that contains exactly two terms. A binomial can be considered as a sum or difference between two or more monomials.
  • Trinomial – A trinomial is an expression that is composed of exactly three terms.
  • Polynomial expression – An expression with more than one term with non-negative integral exponents of a variable is known as a polynomial.

Hence, A polynomial with more than two terms is a trinomial.

Therefore, the given statement is false.
