6.5 Special Factoring Techniques
Example 1 Factor each binomial, if possible.
Factor a difference of squares
(d) x2 8
(e) p2 + 16
It is a prime polynomial because 8 is not the square of an integer.
It is a prime polynomial since it is a sum of squares.

6.5 Special Factoring Techniques
Example 4 Factor x2 + 10x + 25.
Factor a perfect square trinomial.
The term x2 is a perfect square, and so is 25. Try factoring as (x + 5)2.To check, take twice the product of the two terms in the squared binomial.
Since 10x is the middle term of the trinomial, the trinomial is a perfect square and can be factored as (x + 5)2.

6.5 Special Factoring Techniques
Example 5 Factor each trinomial.
Factor a perfect square trinomial.
(a) x2 – 22x + 121The first and last terms are perfect squares.Check to see if the middle term is twice the product of
the first and last terms of the binomial x – 11.

6.5 Special Factoring Techniques
Example 5 Factor each trinomial.
Factor a perfect square trinomial.
Twice the product of the first and last terms is 2(5y)4 = 40y, which is not the middle term.The trinomial is not a perfect square. It is a prime polynomial.
