A constant polynomial in algebra is a polynomial whose degree is equal to zero. The standard form of denoting a constant polynomial is where is a real number. Its graph is a horizontal straight line parallel to the axis as the value of the constant polynomial remains the same irrespective of the change in the variable .
Definition
A polynomial in algebra with degree zero is called a constant polynomial.
In simple words, we can say that a constant polynomial is a polynomial in algebra whose output value remains the same irrespective of the change in the input values. Some of the examples of a constant polynomial are:
Constant Polynomial Graph
We know that constants output value does not change with the change in the input value. So, it has a straight line graph parallel to the axis. Given below is a graph of a constant polynomial Whatever may be the value of , the corresponding output value remains the same which is equal to .
