Study Notes
Polynomial Classifications
- Polynomials are classified based on the number of terms (monomial, binomial, trinomial) and the highest degree (quartic, quadratic, cubic, etc.).
Types of Polynomials
-
Monomials: A polynomial with one term.
- Examples: (2x^2) (quadratic monomial), (7) (constant monomial), (12n^8) (eighth degree monomial).
-
Binomials: A polynomial with two terms.
- Examples: (6n) (linear monomial), (-9n + 10) (linear binomial), (9x² + 3x) (quadratic binomial).
-
Trinomials: A polynomial with three terms.
- Examples: (-5n^4 + 10n - 10) (quartic trinomial), (7n^5 - 9n^2 + 13n) (quintic trinomial), (18n^3 + 9n) (cubic binomial).
Degrees of Polynomials
-
Constant Polynomial: A polynomial of degree 0.
- Examples: (7), (-1), (4) (all constant monomials).
-
Linear Polynomial: A polynomial of degree 1.
- Examples: (6n), (-8n + 2) (linear binomial).
-
Quadratic Polynomial: A polynomial of degree 2.
- Examples: (2p^4 + p^3) (quartic binomial), (9x^2 + 3x) (quadratic binomial).
-
Cubic Polynomial: A polynomial of degree 3.
- Examples: (7n^3) (cubic monomial), (6n^2 - 10n^3 + 7n - 2) (cubic polynomial).
-
Quartic Polynomial: A polynomial of degree 4.
- Examples: (-8n^4 + 5n^3 - 2n^2 - 8n) (quartic polynomial), (4x - 9x^2 + 4x^3 - 5x^4) (quartic polynomial).
-
Quintic Polynomial: A polynomial of degree 5 or higher.
- Examples: (8p^5 - 5p^3 + 2p^2 - 7) (quintic polynomial), (5x^7 + 9x - 3) (seventh degree trinomial).
-
Sixth Degree Polynomial: A polynomial of degree 6.
- Example: (9r^6 - 8) (sixth degree binomial).
-
Eighth Degree Polynomial: A polynomial of degree 8.
- Example: (12n^8) (eighth degree monomial).
Summary of Key Features
- A polynomial can be defined by its number of terms and the highest exponent present.
- Classification aids in understanding the polynomial's behavior, including shape, roots, and transformations.
