A trinomial
A binomial is a polynomial with exactly 2 terms.
An expression with two terms is called a binomial.
A polynomial with three terms is called a trinomial. Example: x² + 16 + 18 is a trinomial. It has three terms (x²), (16), and (18)
Polynomials have terms, but not sides. One with exactly three terms is a "trinomial". Polygons have sides. One of those with exactly three sides is a "triangle".
No. A monomial (watch the spelling, please - only one "no") is a special case of a polynomial. A polynomial may have any number of terms; a monomial has exactly one term.
Let's take a quadratic polynomial. There are three terms in a quadratic polynomial. Example: X^2 + 8X + 16 = 0 To satisfy the criteria of a perfect square polynomial, the first and last term of the polynomial must be squares. The middle term must be either plus or minus two multiplied by the square root of the first term multiplied by the square root of the last term. If these three criteria are satisifed, the polynomial is a perfect square. Let us take the above quadratic. X^2 + 8X + 16 = X^2 + 2(4X) + 4^2 = (X+4)^2 As we can see, each criteria is satified and the polynomial does indeed form a perfect square.
Quintinomial, is a polynomial with 5 terms
A polynomial with two terms is called a binomial.
A third degree polynomial is called a cubic - regardless of how many terms it has, it is named after the highest power.x3+ x - 1 is still a cubic, despite the lack of an x2term. Likewise, x2- 4 is still a quadratic, and x4- 2x is called a quartic.
this term 2x is not a polynomial. this term is a monomial. since only one term was listed it can not be a polynomial. A polynomial is like four or more terms. a trinomial is three terms and a binomial is two terms.
Yes. A monomial is a zero-degree polynomial. Although the prefix poly means "several" the definition allows for any finite number of terms.
