 Lesson

Special Products
1
In this lesson you will learn how to use models and algebraic methods to find a.)
product of two binomials, b.) product of the sum and difference of two terms, c.)
square of a binomial, d.) cube of a binomial, and e.) product of a binomial and a
trinomial.

What’s In

Recall that to find the product of two binomials, we use Distributive Property of
Multiplication over Addition. Using this property, we multiply every term of one
binomial by every term of the other binomial and combine like terms.

Examples for product of binomial

Find the product.

A. (x + 2) (x + 3) C. (3x – 2) (x – 2)
B. (2x + 1) (x – 1) D. (3x + 3) (x + 2)

Solution:
A. (x + 2) (x + 3) = (x)(x) + (x)(3) + (2)(x) + (2)(3)
= x2 + 3x + 2x + 6
= x2 + 5x + 6

B. (2x + 1) (x – 1) = (2x)(x) + (2x)(-1) + (1)(x) + (1)(-1)

= 2x2 – 2x + x – 1
= 2x2 – x – 1

C. (3x – 2) (x – 2) = (3x)(x) + (3x)(-2) + (-2)(x) + (-2)(-2)

= 3x2 – 6x – 2x + 4
= 3x2 – 8x + 4

D. (3x + 3) (x + 2) = (3x)(x) + (3x)(2) + (3)(x) + (3)(2)

= 3x2 + 6x + 3x + 6
= 3x2 + 9x + 6

 What’s New

At this part, let us use models and algebraic methods in finding a.) product of two
binomials, b.) product of the sum and difference of two terms, c.) square of a
binomial, d.) cube of a binomial, and e.) product of a binomial and a trinomial.

Activity 1.

This activity uses algebra tiles to find the general formula for the product of
two binomials. To do the activity, prepare several pages of newspapers and a pair of
scissors. Cut at least three sheets of paper using the following pattern. Color the big
square sheet in black, the rectangle sheet in red and the small square in yellow.

Task A: Write your answer to the following questions on a separate sheet of paper.

1. If the smallest figure is a square measuring 1 unit in each side, form a square
that measures 2 units on each side. What is the area of this square?
2. Determine how many squares of 1 unit in each side will be used to cover the
figure colored in black and in red.

Cut additional sheets of paper and follow the pattern below to create a rectangle.
Then answer the following questions below.

The figure on the left is formed by placing

together the 6 large squares, 16 rectangles
and 25 small squares. Let the small square
measures 1 unit in each side, then the
dimensions would be as follow:
= 1 unit by 1 unit

= 1 unit by 2 units

= 2 units by 2 units

5
 Suppose each large squares has a dimension of x units, the rectangle is x
units by 1 unit and the small squares has a side length of 1 unit.

Recall that the area of a square and a rectangle is determined by multiplying

their lengths and their widths. Then determine the area of the large square, the
rectangle and the small square.

Task B: Write your answer to the following questions in a separate sheet of paper.

1. What is the area of a rectangle when the rectangle has a length of x+2 and a
width of x +1 using algebra tiles?
2. What is the area of the illustration represented by the algebra tiles above?

What is the product of x + 1 and x + 2? Is it the same as the area of the

rectangle in Task B, Question No. 1?
Note that the area of a rectangle is the product of its length and its width
and if the dimensions are represented by binomials, then the area of the
rectangle is equivalent to the product of the two binomials which is x2 + 3x + 2.

Task C: Write your answer to the following questions in a separate sheet of paper.

1. Use algebraic method to find the product of the following.

a. (x + 2) (x + 3)
b. (2x - 1) (x + 4)
c. (2x + 1) (2x + 3)

2. How will you represent x - 1 using algebra tiles?

6
 What is It

Use Models and Algebraic Methods to find the special product:

a). Product of Two Binomials

The product of (a + b) (c + d) is ac + ad + bc + bd. This is the general formula

for the product of two binomials (a + b) (c + d).

The general form may be obtained using the FOIL method. The letters FOIL
stands for First, Outer, Inner and Last. First means multiply the terms which occur
first in each binomial. The Outer means multiply the outer terms in each binomial.
Inner means multiply the inner terms of the two binomials. And Last implies that we
multiply the last terms of the two binomials. Then simplify the results by combining
like terms.

Example 1. Find the product of (x + 3) (x + 5).

Solution:

First: (x) (x) = x2

Outer: (x) (5) = 5x
add
Inner: (3) (x) = 3x
Last: (3) (5) = 15

(x + 3) (x + 5) = x2 + 5x + 3x + 15
= x2 + 8x + 15

Example 2. Find the product of (x - 4) (3x + 2)

Solution:

(x - 4) (3x + 2)
First: (x) (3x) = 3x2
Outer: (x) (2) = 2x
Inner: (-4) (3x) = -12x
Last: (-4) (2) = -8

(x + 4) (3x + 2) = 3x2 + 2x - 12x - 8

= 3x2 – 10x – 8

7
b). Product of the Sum and Difference of Two Terms

The product of the sum and difference of two terms is given where the first
and second terms of the two binomials are the same, hence the only different is the
operation sign, given by the general formula:

(a + b) (a – b) = a2 – b2

The general formula (a + b) (a – b) = a2 – b2 is derived using the FOIL method.

(a + b) (a – b) = a2 + ab – ab – b2

Since the two middle terms are opposites, their sum is 0. Thus, the pattern
of the product of the sum and difference of two terms is a2 – b2.

Example 1. Find the product of (x + 5) (x - 5).

Solution:
Let a = x and b = 5
Using the special product of the form a2 - b2, we have:
(x + 5) (x - 5) = (x)2 – (5)2
= x2 - 25

Example 2. Find the product of (3x + 4) (3x - 4).

Solution:
Let a = 3x and b = 4
Using the special product of the form a2 - b2, we have:
(3x + 4) (3x - 4) = (3x)2 – (4)2
= 9x2 - 16

c.) Square of a Binomial

The square of a binomial (a + b)2 is the product of a binomial when multiplied

to itself. FOIL method can be used in finding the general formula of the square of a
binomial.

(a + b)2 = (a + b) (a + b) (a - b)2 = (a - b) (a - b)
= a2 + ab + ab + b2 = a2 - ab - ab + b2
= a2 + 2ab + b2 = a2 - 2ab + b2

o The first term of the product is always the square of the first term in the
binomial.
o The second term of the product is always twice the product of the two terms
in the binomial.
o The last term of the product is always the square of the last term in the
binomial.

8
Example 1. Find the product of (x + 4)2.

Solution:
Using the special product of the square of the binomial, we have:
(a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2
Let a = x and b = 4. Substituting these values, we get:
(x + 4)2 = x2 + 2(x)(4) + 42
= x2 + 2(4x) + 42
= x2 + 8x + 16

Example 2. Find the square of (x - 6)2.

Solution:
Using the special product of the square of the binomial, we have:
(a - b)2 = a2 - 2ab + b2
Let a = x and b = 6. Substituting these values, we get:
(x - 6)2 = x2 - 2(x)(6) + (6)2
= x2 - 2(6x) + (6)2
= x2 – 12x + 36

d.) Cube of a Binomial

The cube of a binomial can be expressed as (a + b) 2(a + b) because of the Law

of Exponents. By actually multiplying, we get:

(a + b)3 = (a + b)2(a + b) Square the binomial.

= (a2 + 2ab + b2)(a + b) Distributive Property
= a3 + 2a2b + ab2 + a2b +2ab2 + b3 Combine similar terms
(a + b) =
3 a3 + 3a2b + 3ab2 + b3

The cube of a binomial (a + b) is the sum of four terms where each term can
be obtained as follows:

First Term: The cube of a

Second Term: Three times the product of a2 and b
Third Term: Three times the product of a and b2
Fourth Term: The cube of b

For all numbers a and b, the cube of a binomial patterns are:

(a + b)3 = a3 + 3a2b + 3ab2 + b3
(a - b)3 = a3 - 3a2b + 3ab2 - b3

Example 1. Find the product of (x + 5)3.

Solution:
Using the special product of the cube of the binomial, we have:
(a + b)3 = a3 + 3a2b + 3ab2 + b3

9
 Let a = x and b = 5. Substituting these values, we get:
(x + 5)3 = x3 + 3(x)2(5) + 3(x)(5)2 + (5)3
= x3 + 3(5x2) + 3(x)(25) + 125
= x3 + 15x2 + 75x + 125

Example 2. Find the product of (x - 6)3.

Solution:
Using the special product of the cube of the binomial, we have:
(a - b)3 = a3 - 3a2b + 3ab2 - b3
Let a = x and b = 6. Substituting these values, we get:
(x - 6)3 = x3 - 3(x)2(6) + 3(x)(6)2 – (6)3
= x3 - 3(6x2) + 3(x)(36) - 216
= x3 - 18x2 + 108x - 216

e.) Square of Trinomials

The square of a trinomial (a + b + c) has six terms.

(a + b + c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2ab + 2ac + 2bc

First term: Square of the first term a2

Second term: Square of the second term b2
Third term: Square of the third term c2
Fourth term: Twice the product of the first term and the second term 2ab
Fifth term: Twice the product of the first term and the third term 2ac
Sixth term: Twice the product of the second term and the third term 2bc

Example 1: Find the product of (x + 2y + 3z)2.

Solution:
First term: (x)2 = x2
Second term: (2y)2 = 4y2
Third term: (3z)2 = 9z2
Fourth term: 2(x)(2y) = 4xy
Fifth term: 2(x)(3z) = 6xz
Sixth term: 2(2y)(3z) = 12yz

Thus, (x + 2y + 3z)2 = x2 + 4y2 + 9z2 + 4xy + 6xz + 12yz.

Example 2. Find the product of (2x - 3y + 4z)2.

Solution:
First term: (2x)2 = 4x2
Second term: (-3y) 2 = 9y2
Third term: (4z)2 = 16z2

10
 Fourth term: 2(2x)(-3y) = -12xy
Fifth term: 2(2x)(4z) = 16xz
Sixth term: 2(-3y)(4z) = -24yz

Thus, (2x - 3y + 4z)2 = 4x2 + 9y2 + 16z2 – 12xy + 16xz – 24yz.

f.) Product of a Binomial and a Trinomial

The product of a binomial and a trinomial can be expressed as the sum or

difference of two cubes if they are in the following form:

(a + b)(a2 – ab + b2) or (a - b)(a2 + ab + b2)

If the given is not of the above forms, the pattern is not applicable.

(a+b) (a2 – ab + b2) = a(a2 – ab + b2) + b( a2 – ab + b2) Apply Distribute Property

= a3 – a2b +ab2 + a2b – ab2 + b3 Cancel out opposite terms
= a3 + b3

(a - b) (a2 + ab + b2) = a(a2 + ab + b2) - b( a2 + ab + b2) Apply Distribute Property

= a3 + a2b + ab2 - a2b – ab2 - b3 Cancel out opposite terms
= a3 - b3

Thus, the general forms can now be stated as:

(a + b) (a2 – ab + b2) = a3 + b3
(a - b) (a2 + ab + b2) = a3 - b3
Example 1. Find the product of (x + 3)(x2 – 3x + 9).

Solution:
Using the special product of a binomial and a trinomial, we have:
(a + b) (a2 – ab + b2) = a3 + b3

Let a = x and b = 3. Substituting these values, we get:

(x + 3) (x2 – 3x + 9) = (x)3 + (3)3
= x3 + 27

Example 2. Find the product of (x - 4) (x2 + 4x +16)

Solution:
Using the special product of a binomial and a trinomial, we have:
(a - b) (a2 + ab + b2) = a3 - b3

Let a = x and b = 4. Substituting these values, we get:

(x - 4) (x2 + 4x +16) = (x)3 – (4)3
= x3 - 64
