The exponent of the term with the highest power in a pol is known as its​

Answer 1

Answer:

The power is simply number in the exponent. In the polynomial, x2+x+a, the power of the first term is 2. Since the polynomial has the largest exponent that is 2, which is the degree of the polynomial. Hence, the highest power of the variable in a polynomial is called its degree.
