The video tutorial explains how to classify polynomials by their degree and the number of terms. It covers the naming conventions for polynomials based on their degree, such as constant, linear, quadratic, cubic, quartic, and quintic, and how these names relate to their shapes. The tutorial also discusses naming polynomials based on the number of terms, using terms like monomial, binomial, and trinomial. Several examples are provided to illustrate the classification process, including special cases like constant monomials. The video concludes with a summary of the classification method.
