In polynomial mathematics, the degree is denoted as the greatest exponent of the variable. The term with the maximum degree, when expressed in standard form, is identified as the leading term. The coefficient attached to this leading term is referred to as the leading coefficient. These elements are essential in understanding the polynomial's characteristics, especially its end behavior.
