On the bases of degree..
On the basis of degree polynomials can be divided into linear,quadratic,cubic,biquadratic, quintic,sextic....e.t.c
LINEAR POLYNOMIAL: A polynomial is said to be linear polynomial if it's degree = 1
e.g (x+1)
Quadratic Polynomial: A polynomial is said to be quadratic polynomial if it's degree =2
e.g x^2 +1....read as (x square plus 1)
CUBIC POLYNOMIAL: A polynomial is said to be cubic polynomial if it's degree =3..
e.g x^3 +1..... read as (x cube plus 1)
BIQUADRATIC POLYNOMIAL: A polynomial is said to be biquadratic polynomial or (Quartic polynomial) if it's degree = 4
e.g x^4 +5...read as x raised to power 4 plus1
On the basis of number of terms
On the basis of number of terms polynomials can be divided into MONOMIALS BINOMIALS TRINOMIALS e.t.c
MONOMIAL: A polynomial is said to be monomial if it contains only one term...MONO means 1
e.g...2x 5y,7z
BINOMIAL:A polynomial is said to be binomial if it contains only two terms...BI means Two.. e.g 2x+3y, 7z+6x etc
TRINOMIAL: A polynomial is said to be trinomial if it contains only three terms...Tri means 3...
e.g 7x+3y+2z
