Polynomials are classified according to two attributes: number of terms and degree.
your polynomial has three terms, 25k%5E2%2B10k+%2B1, and a polynomial with three terms is a trinomial
The degree of a polynomial is the largest of the degrees of its monomial terms.
So, your polynomial has the degree 2.
