The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of the variable.
The order of the polynomial (the highest power) and the coefficient of the highest power.
That varies from polynomial to polynomial. Whatever the highest exponent is is called the "degree", so a quadratic like x2 + 2x + 8 has degree 2.
degree is the power of variable.. in polynomial it is the highest power of the variable, in differential equations it is the highest derivative, etc..
As many as you like. The highest power of the variable in question (usually x) defines the degree of the polynomial. If the degree is n, the polynomial can have n+1 terms. (If there are more then the polynomial can be reduced.) But there is NO LIMIT to the value of n.
