Master Labeling the Degree and Leading coefficient of a polynomial

The video tutorial explains how to identify the leading coefficient and degree of a polynomial function. It emphasizes the importance of ensuring polynomials are in descending order of power and provides examples to illustrate the process. Special cases, such as standalone variables and fractions, are also discussed to help students understand how to handle them. The tutorial concludes with a summary of the key points covered.
