The document is a presentation on polynomials. It defines a polynomial as an expression that can contain constants, variables, and exponents, but cannot contain division by a variable. It discusses the key characteristics of polynomials including their degree, standard form, zeros, factoring, and algebraic identities. Examples are provided to illustrate different types of polynomials like monomials, binomials, trinomials, and how to add, subtract, multiply and divide polynomials.
