Squaring Binomials results in Perfect Square Trinomials
1. Square the first term. 2. Double the product of the two terms. 3. Square the last term. Ex: (2x – 1)2
4x2 - 4x + 1 Perfect square trinomial
Ex: (3x + 4)2
9x2 + 24x + 16 Perfect square trinomial
Sum times Difference of same terms results in Difference of Perfect Squares
1. Multiply the first term. 2. Multiply the last terms. Ex: (2x – 1) (2x + 1) 4x2 – 1 Difference of Perfect
Squares Ex: (3x + 4) (3x – 4) 9x2 – 16 Difference of Perfect
Squares (This is because the middle terms cancel.)
(a + b)(a2 – ab + b2) Results in Sum of Perfect Cubes
1. Cube 1st term in binomial 2. Cube 2nd term in binomial Ex: (2x + 3) (4x2 – 6x + 9) 8x3 + 27 Ex: (x + 1) (x2 – x +1) x3 + 1 (Again, middle terms cancel out.) (plus, minus, plus gives plus)
(a – b)(a2 + ab + b2)Results in Difference of Perfect Cubes
1. Cube 1st term in binomial 2. Cube 2nd term in binomial Ex: (2x - 3) (4x2 + 6x + 9) 8x3 - 27 Ex: (x – 1) (x2 + x +1) x3 – 1 (Again, middle terms cancel out.) (minus, plus, plus gives minus)
