The advantage of trinomial is that its degree normally does not exceed 2. Hence quadratic formula we can apply if we cannot find exact splitting up of the x term. Eg :- x2-2x-1 is of degree 2 whereas x4-x2-1 is a trinomial of degree 4. Factoring trinomials can be done in any of the following ways. We already know these identities as (a+b)2 = a2+2ab+b2 (a-b)2 = a2-2ab+b2 (x+a)(x+b) = x2+x(a+b)+ab These can be applied in reverse to factoring trinomials of this form. Example :- Factorize x2-6x+9 This is of the form x2-2(x)(3)+32 . So factors are (x+3)2 Next is factorise 25x2-50x+1 = (5x)2-2(5x)(1)+1 = (5x-1)2
Thus these type of terms can be easily factored. Hence given a polynomial we check whether it is a quadratic with on variable, if it is so, check whether first term and last term is a square. If it is satisfied then check for middle term whether it is of the form 2ab. Thus this identity in reverse is used in factoring trinomials, For expressions of the form say x2-6x+5 , we have 5=5*1, and 6 =5+1, thus the third identity can be applied here to factorize. So the expression = (x-5)(x-1). Thus these three identities are helpful in Factoring trinomials. Factoring Trinomials Worksheets Here are some exercise problems for factoring trinomials i. Factorize: 1. x2-3x-70 2. x2-18x+81 3. x2+2+ 4. 2x2-8x-6
ii. Find the constant a and b 1. x2-ax+b = (x-1)(x-8) 2. x2-2ax+a2 = (x-3)2 3. x2-ax-b = (x-7)(x+1) iii. Word problems 1.A number added to 7 and multiplied by the number added to 3 gives 21, Find the number 2. A number twice added to 7 multiplied by 3 less than the number gives 57. Find the number 3. The square of a number subtracted from 95 gives square of the difference of number and 1Find the number. 4. A number when added to two and multiplied by3 gives the square of the number +2. Find the number. Answers :- i.(x-1)2,(x-9)2, (x+)2,2(x2-4x-3) ii. (-9, 8),(a = 3),(-6, -7) iii.0, 3, 7, 4.
