KINDS OF POLYNOMIALS

MONOMIAL – It is a Polynomial of one term.

Examples:
1.) 4 – 2
2.) 5
3.) 6 – 3
4.) 10

BIMOMIAL – It is a Polynomial of two terms

Examples:
1.) 6xy+2xy
2.) 10 – 6 – 2
3.) 3x + 4y
4.) 7xyz – 5xyz

TRINOMIAL – It nis a polynomial of three terms.

Examples:
1.) 6x+2y-2x
2.) 7x - 3y+4z – 2y
3.) 4x + 3y + 2z
4.) 7x + 8y – 5z

MULTINOMIAL – It is a polynomial of more than three terms.

Examples:
1.) 5x – 2y +6z + 2x
2.) 3x + 5y +7z -2x
3.) 10x + 2y – 5z +2x
4.) 5x + 3y + 2z +7x
