topics

This is a list of polynomial topics, by

Wikipedia page. See also trigonometric

topics.

Terminology
Degree: The maximum exponents
among the monomials.
Factor: An expression being multiplied.
Linear factor: A factor of degree one.
Coefficient: An expression multiplying
one of the monomials of the polynomial.
Root (or zero) of a polynomial: Given a
polynomial p(x), the x values that satisfy
p(x) = 0 are called roots (or zeroes) of
the polynomial p.
