Degree of a polynomial
A monomial or a sum of monomial a each called a term of the polynomial
Polynomial
When a polynomial is written so that the exponents of a variable decrease from left to right the coefficient of the first term is the leading coefficient
Leading coefficient
A polynomial with two terms
Binomial
A polynomial with three terms
Trinomial
