1. This document contains instructions and examples for classifying polynomials by degree and identifying like and unlike terms. Students are asked to answer questions about polynomials provided, complete examples identifying polynomials by degree, and classify terms as like or unlike. 2. Students should show their work to the teacher for feedback before moving on to practice problems. The document provides guidance on identifying polynomials by degree as mono- , bi- or tri-nomials and identifying like terms that have the same variable and same exponent.
