How far did you get?
Perfect Square TrinomialAx2 + Bx + C
• Clue 1: A & C are positive, perfect squares.
• Clue 2: B is the square root of A times the square root of C, doubled.
If these two things are true, the trinomial is a Perfect Square Trinomial and can be
factored as (x + y)2 or (x – y)2.
General Form of Perfect Square Trinomials
• x2 + 2xy + y2 = (x + y)2
or• x2 – 2xy + y2 = (x - y)2
• Note: When factoring, the sign in the binomial is the same as the sign
of B in the trinomial.
Just watch and think.• Ex) x2 + 12x + 36• What’s the square root of
A? of C?• Multiply these and double.
Does it = B?• Then it’s a Perfect Square
Trinomial!
• Solution: (x + 6)2
• Ex) 16a2 – 56a + 49• Square root of A? of
C?• Multiply and double…• = B?
• Solution: (4a – 7) 2
Ex. 1: Determine whether each trinomial is a perfect square trinomial.
If so, factor it.1. y² + 8y + 162. 9y² - 30y + 10
Example 2: Factoring perfect square trinomials.
• 1) x2 + 8x + 16 2) 9n2 + 48n + 64
• 3) 4z2 – 36z + 81 4) 9g² +12g - 4
4) 25x² - 30x + 9
5) x² + 6x - 9
6) 49y² + 42y + 36
7) 9m³ + 66m² - 48m

Difference of Squares
a2 - b2 = (a - b)(a + b)or
a2 - b2 = (a + b)(a - b)
The order does not matter!!
4 Steps for factoringDifference of Squares
1. Are there only 2 terms?2. Is the first term a perfect square?3. Is the last term a perfect square?4. Is there subtraction (difference) in the
problem?If all of these are true, you can factor
using this method!!!

1. (x + y)(x + y)
2. (x – y)(x + y)
3. (x + y)(x – y)
4. (x – y)(x – y)
Remember, the order doesn’t matter!
When factoring, use your factoring table.

Factor 18c2 + 8d2
1. prime
2. 2(9c2 + 4d2)
3. 2(3c – 2d)(3c + 2d)
4. 2(3c + 2d)(3c + 2d)
You cannot factor using difference of squares because there is no
subtraction!
Factor -64 + 4m2
Rewrite the problem as 4m2 – 64 so the
subtraction is in the middle!
1. prime
2. (2m – 8)(2m + 8)
3. 4(-16 + m2)
4. 4(m – 4)(m + 4)
Ex. 3: Factor completely.
2x² + 18
c² - 5c + 6
5a³ - 80a
8x² - 18x - 35
Ex. 3: Solve each equation.
3x² + 24x + 48 = 049a² + 16 = 56a
z² + 2x + 1= 16 (y – 8)² = 7
