A quadratic polynomial is one in which the highest power of a variable term in the polynomial expression is equal to 2.
Definition
A quadratic polynomial is a second-degree polynomial where the value of the highest degree term is equal to 2. The general form of a quadratic equation is given as . Here, and are coefficients, is the unknown variable and is the constant term. As this equation contains a quadratic polynomial, hence, solving it will give two solutions. This implies that there can be two values of .
