Learning Targets
I will be able to:
Identifying Parts Of A Monomial
Classify polynomials by the number of
terms
Classify Polynomials By Degree
IDENTIFYING PARTS OF A
MONOMIAL
Let’s try an example: Identify the coefficient, variable, and
exponent:
WAYS TO CLASSIFY POLYNOMIALS
We can classify polynomials by the number of terms:
__________1 term Think about other words with the prefix mono:
monotone, monochromatic, monologue
__________ :
2 terms Think about other words with the prefix bi:
bicycle, bifocals, bimonthly
__________ : 3 terms Think about other words with the prefix tri:
tricycle, triathlon, triceratops
__________ : 4 or more terms
Think about other words with
the prefix poly: polytheistic,
polygon
Let’s take a closer look at
classifying polynomials by number
of terms...
Polynomials
are fun!
CLASSIFYING POLYNOMIALS BY
NUMBER OF TERMS
Monomial: a number, a variable, or the
product of a number and one or more variables.
We are also going to call this a ________.
Let’s check out some examples of monomials:
A monomial with no variables is called a ______________.
CLASSIFYING POLYNOMIALS BY
NUMBER OF TERMS
_______________: a polynomial with 2 terms
Let’s check out some examples of binomials:
_______________: a polynomial with 3 terms
Let’s check out some examples of trinomials:
CLASSIFYING POLYNOMIALS BY DEGREE
Finding the degree of a Monomial:
_____________

Example 1:
Example 2:
Finding the degree of a Polynomial:
__________
________________________________________________________
Example 1:
Example 2:
A monomial is a number, a variable, or a product of
numbers and variables with whole-number exponents.
The degree of a monomial is the ______ of the
________ of the variables. A constant has __________.
Example 1: Finding the Degree of a Monomial
Find the degree of each monomial.
A. 4p4q3
B. 7ed
C. 3
Add the exponents of the
variables: 4 + 3 = 7.

Find the degree of each monomial.
a. 1.5k2m
b. 4x
b. 2c3
CLASSIFYING POLYNOMIALS BY DEGREE
Finding the degree of a Polynomial:
same as that of its term with the greatest degree.
Example 1:
Example 2:
The
Some polynomials have special names based on their
degree and the number of terms they have.

Example 2: Finding the Degree of a Polynomial
And its name
Find the degree of each polynomial.
A. 11x7 + 3x3
11x7: degree 7 3x3: degree 3
The degree of the polynomial is the
greatest degree, 7, so it’s 7th.
B.
The degree of the polynomial is the
greatest degree, 4, so it’s quartic.
Find the degree of
each term.
Check It Out! Example 2
Find the degree and the name of each polynomial.
a. 5x – 6
b. x3y2 + x2y3 – x4 + 2

NON-EXAMPLES OF POLYNOMIALS
The terms of a polynomial may be written in
any order. However, polynomials that
contain only one variable are usually written
in standard form.
The standard form of a _________ that
contains one variable is written with the
____________________from greatest
degree to least degree. When written in
standard form, the coefficient of the first
term is called the ___________________.
Example 3A: Writing Polynomials in Standard Form
Write the polynomial in standard form. Then
give the leading coefficient.
6x – 7x5 + 4x2 + 9
Find the degree of each term. Then arrange them in
descending order:
6x – 7x5 + 4x2 + 9
Degree

Example 3B: Writing Polynomials in Standard Form
Write the polynomial in standard form. Then
give the leading coefficient.
y2 + y6 − 3y

Write the polynomial in standard form. Give
the leading coefficient. Then name it by
degree and number of terms.

Check It Out! Example 3b
Write the polynomial in standard form. Give
the leading coefficient. Then name it by
degree and number of terms.
18y5 – 3y8 + 14y
Example 4: Classifying Polynomials
Classify each polynomial according to its
degree and number of terms.
A. 5n3 + 4n
Degree 3 Terms 2
B. 4y6 – 5y3 + 2y – 9
C. –2x
5n3 + 4n is a cubic
binomial.
Classify each polynomial according to its
degree and number of terms.
D. x3 + x2 – x + 2
E. 6
F. –3y8 + 18y5 + 14y
