MCQ
The degree of the zero polynomial is
- A$0$
- Bany natural number
- C1
- Dnot defined
✓
Answer
(d) not defined
Explanation: The general form of a polynomial is $a _{ n } x ^{ n }$, where n is a natural number.
For zero polynomial $a_n=0$.
Since the largest value of n for which $a _{ n }$ is non-zero is negative infinity (all the integers are bigger than negative infinity).
Therefore, the degree of zero polynomials is not defined.
