Key Terms1. Binomial – sum of two monomials.
2. Trinomial – the sum of three monomials.
3. Degree of a monomial – the sum of the exponents of all its variables. A nonzero constant has a degree of 0.
4. Degree of a polynomial – the greatest degree of any term in the polynomial

5. Standard form of a polynomial – the terms are written in order from greatest degree to least degree.
6. Leading coefficient – the coefficient of the first term, after it is written in standard form.
