8.4

  • Special Products

IXL Practice

Students will be able to... 

  • Memorize the following patterns so you can do them in your head

    • (a+b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2​

    • (a-b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2

    • (a+b)(a-b) = a^2 - b^2

8.6

IXL Practice

Students will be able to...

8.7

  • Solving ax^2+bx+c=0

IXL Practice

Students will be able to...

  • Factor trinomials that have an "a" term using the x-method (note: the x-method is the way that I teach it. It is not part of any mathematical vocabulary.)

  • Solve equations that first need factored using the x-method.

8.8

  • Differences of Squares

IXL Practice

Students will be able to...

  • Use this pattern to be able to factor this special case in their head.

8.9

  • Perfect Squares

This IXL Practice summarizes all the types of factoring we've learned this chapter.

Students will be able to...

  • Use this pattern to be able to factor this special case in their head.

    • a^2+2ab+b^2=(a+b)^2

    • a^2-2ab+b^2=(a-b)^2
