Polynomils with one, two, nd three terms re clled monomils, inomils, nd trinomils, respectively. A polynomil tht hs ll zero coefficients is clled the zero polynomil, denoted y 0. No degree is ssigned to this prticulr polynomil. For polynomils in more thn one vrile, the degree of term is the sum of the eponents of the vriles in the term. The degree of the polynomil is the highest degree of its terms. For instnce, the degree of the polynomil 23y6 4y 7y4 is ecuse the sum of the eponents in the lst term is the gretest.

It is n importnt tool for solving equtions nd for simplifying rtionl epressions. Unless noted otherwise, when you re sked to fctor polynomil, you cn ssume tht you re looking for fctors with integer coefficients. If polynomil cnnot e fctored using integer coefficients, it is prime or irreducile over the integers. For instnce, the polynomil 2 3 is irreducile over the integers. Over the rel numers, this polynomil cn e fctored s 2 3 3 3. A polynomil is completely fctored when ech of its fctors is prime. So, 3 2 4 4 2 4 is completely fctored, ut 3 2 4 4 2 4 is not completely fctored. Its complete fctoriztion is 3 2 4 4 2 2. Completely fctored Not completely fctored The simplest type of fctoring involves polynomil tht cn e written s the product of monomil nd nother polynomil. The technique used here is the Distriutive Property, c c, in the reverse direction. For instnce, the polynomil 5 2 5 cn e fctored s follows. 5 2 5 5 5 3 5 3 5 is common fctor.
