Let's just think about what happens when we take the perfect square of a binomial, especially when the coefficient on the x term is not a 1. If we have ax plus b squared, what will this look …

The perfect square concept is important because we could factor any squares, but perfect squares get whole numbers. So I could say that x^2 - 3 factors to (x + √3) (x - √3) which is …

In this article, we'll learn how to factor perfect square trinomials using special patterns. This reverses the process of squaring a binomial, so you'll want to understand that completely …

In the video, Sal showed us 2 possible answers to factor out the trinomial. So, if I have to answer this question like in a test or something, am I supposed to show the 2 possible answers even …

Completing the square means we can take any quadratic polynomial and force it to into the form of a perfect square trinomial. This video teaches you how to recognize what is a perfect …

Learn how to factor quadratics that have the "perfect square" form. For example, write x²+6x+9 as (x+3)².

It's called a perfect square trinomial because it is created from squaring a binomial. (a+b)^2 = a^2+2ab+b^2

Factor quadratic expressions of the general perfect square forms: (ax)²+2abx+b² or (ax)²-2abx+b². The factored expressions have the general forms (ax+b)² or (ax-b)².

Sal factors 25x^2-30x+9 as (5x-3)^2 or as (-5x+3)^2.
