Ex: 8xy and −5xy are like terms because they have the same variables and
power.
Unlike terms are terms that have not the same variables or powers.
Ex: 3abc and 3xyz are unlike terms because they have different variables.
Types of Algebraic expression based on their terms: Based on the
terms algebraic expression divided into four types such as Monomial, Binomial,
Trinomials and Polynomials as described below.
