To find the degree of the polynomial \(-m^2 + 10m\), we need to identify the term with the highest exponent of the variable \(m\).
The polynomial has two terms:
1. \(-m^2\) (with an exponent of 2)
2. \(10m\) (with an exponent of 1)
The highest exponent among these terms is 2. Therefore, the degree of the polynomial \(-m^2 + 10m\) is:
\[
\text{Degree} = 2
\]
