The process of reordering a polynomial in ascending order involves reorganizing its components so that they escalate based on their degree. To clarify, a term's degree is determined by the exponent of its variable. For instance, consider the polynomial 3x^3 - x^2 + 2x - 5. When rearranged in ascending order, it transforms into -5 + 2x - x^2 + 3x^3.
