Monomials, Binomials, Trinomials

This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

State

A monomial is a polynomial with one term, a binomial has two, and a trinomial has three.

Show

7x⁴ is a monomial; x + 5 is a binomial; x² + 4x + 4 is a trinomial. The count ignores the powers entirely.

Watch for

The prefix counts terms, not variables.

  • Nothing — this is a starting point.

Unlocks
