Vedclass · Answer

(A) The zero polynomial is defined as the polynomial $P(x) = 0$. By definition,the degree of a non-zero constant polynomial is $0$,but for the zero polynomial,the degree is not defined because any power of the variable $x$ multiplied by $0$ results in $0$ (i.e.,$0 \cdot x^n = 0$ for any $n \ge 0$). Therefore,the degree of the zero polynomial is not defined. Hence,the correct option is $(A)$.
