Math8.Factoring General Trinomials

This document provides strategies for factoring trinomials in the form x^2 + bx + c. It gives two examples of factorizing trinomials: (1) x^2 + 9x + 20, which factors to (x + 4)(x + 5), and (2) z^2 + 2z - 15, which factors to (z - 3)(z + 5). It concludes by listing three more examples of trinomials that can be factored and thanks the reader.

Strategy 5: FACTORING TRINOMIALS


IN THE FORM
x2+bx+c
Prepared by: KAREN JOY P. TOMAS

V. Factoring Trinomials in the form x2+bx+c

1.
 
x + 9x + 20
2 x x
 
V. Factoring Trinomials in the form x2+bx+c

x + 9x + 20
2  
x 4 x 5
  = 20
1+ 20 = 21
  = 20
-1+ (-20) = -21
  = 20
2+10 = 12
  = 20
-2+(-10) = -12
 
 4+5=9  
= 20
= 20

2.
 
z + 2z - 15
2 z z
 
V. Factoring Trinomials in the form x2+bx+c

2. z + 2z - 15
2  
z (-3) z 5

  = -15
-1+ 15 = 14
  = -15
1+ (-15) = -14
 
 -3 + 5 = 2  
= -15
= -15

 
More Examples
   
a 2 a 17

 
g (-8) g (-2)
 

 
m 9 m (-3 )
 
WELL DONE!!
Thanks!
