Answer:

By Number of terms:

  • 1 term: monomial
  • 2 terms: binomial
  • 3 terms: trinomial
  • 4 or more terms: polynomial with X terms. (X = numer of terms)

By degree:

  • You choose the term with the highest degree (exponents in a term added up, if a variable doesnt have exponent, count it as 1) the highest degree in a term is the degree of the polynomial
