Factoring Trinomials
Factor trinomials when the coefficient of the quadratic term is 1.
Factor trinomials when the coefficient of the quadratic term is not 1.
Use an alternative method for factoring trinomials.
Factor by substitution.

Factor trinomials when the coefficient of the quadratic term is 1.
Objective 1
Slide 6.2- 2

Factoring x2 + bx + c
Step 1 Find pairs whose product is c. Find all pairs of integers whose product is c, the third term of the trinomial.
Step 2 Find pairs whose sum is b. Choose the pair whose sum is b, the coefficient of the middle term.
If there are no such integers, the polynomials cannot be factored.
A polynomial that cannot be factored with integer coefficient is a prime polynomial.

CLASSROOM EXAMPLE 6
Factoring Trinomials in ax2 + bx + c Form
Slide 6.2- 14
Copyright © 2012, 2008, 2004 Pearson Education, Inc.
Factoring ax2 + bx + c (GCF of a, b, c is 1)
Step 1 Find pairs whose product is a. Write all pairs of integer factors of a, the coefficient of the second-degree term.
Step 2 Find pairs whose product is c. Write all pairs of integer factors of c, the last term.
Step 3 Choose inner and outer terms. Use FOIL and various combinations of the factors from Steps 1 and 2 until the necessary middle term is found.
If no such combinations exist, the trinomial is prime.
