The highest power of the polynomial function is known as the degree and the number of roots is equal to the degree.

Further explanation:

Explanation:

Degree is defined as the highest power of the polynomial function.

The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra states that the polynomial has n roots if the degree of the polynomial is n.

f\left( x \right) = a{x^n} + b{x^{n - 1}} +  \ldots  + cx + d

The polynomial function has n roots or zeroes.

Consider a polynomial function 4{x^4} + 3{x^2} + x + 5.

The highest power of the polynomial function is 4.

Therefore, the degree of the polynomial function is 4.

Since, the degree of the polynomial function is 4. Therefore, the polynomial has 4 roots.

The highest power of the polynomial function is known as the degree and the number of roots is equal to the degree.
