3. Select the correct statement from the following :
(A) Degree of a zero polynomial is 0(F)
(B) Degree of a zero polynomial is not defined(T)
(C) Zero of a zero polynomial is not defined(F)
(D) Degree of a constant polynomial is not defined(F)

ANSWER
3
1. i) 4x is a monomial expression as it contains only one term.
2
(ii) x - 1 is a binomial expression because it contains two terms.
2
2
(iii) x - y is a binomial expression as it consists of two terms.
2
2
(iv) 3x + 4y +5z contains three terms. So, it is a trinomial.
3
3
(v) a + b - 3ab + 5 contains four terms. So, it is a quadrinomial.
2
2
2
2
(vi) a + b + c - d is a quadrinomial, because it contains four terms.
