SPECIAL PRODUCTS
AND FACTORS
INTRODUCTION AND FOCUS QUESTIONS
Have you at a certain time asked yourself how @ basketball court was painted
Using the least number of pant? Or how the architect was able to maximize the space
of abulding and was able to place all ameniies the owners want? Or how a carpenter
(was able to cats tilly box using mnimal materile? Or how same students wore
able to mutiply polynemial expressiors na loestrumber of time?
This module wil help you recognize patterns and techniques in finding products,
andfactors, and mathematical as wellas rea-lfe problems.
Alter frishing the modub, you should be abla fo anewer the following questions:
‘a. How can paynomials be used to solve geomet: problems?
b. How are products obtaned through paterns?
c. Howare factors relaied to products?
I. LESSONS AND COVERAGE
In ths module, you will examine the aforementioned questions when you study
the following lessons:

Now you have ateady comaleted this module, let's summarize what you have just
learned You have leamed that product of some polynomials can ba abjained using the
cifleront pattomne, ard thoes producte are called special produets. Yau algo leamed the
diflarent examples of special products, such as, perfect square trnomials, the diference of
‘wo squares, and the product when you raise a binomial to The third power.
‘This module also taught you to factor different products through the use of different
patto:ne end rules. Factoring that you have leamed are: (1) Factoring by greataet common
monomal factor, (2) Factoring difference of two squares, (2) Factoring perfect square
{rinomials, (4) Factoring general trinomials, (5) Factoring he sum or diference of two cubes,
and (6) Factoring by grouping.
You have laarned thatthe spacial produete and factaeng can be applied to salve seme
real ~ life protles, asin the case of Punnet squares, packaging bax making, and even on
tes tat can be found around us.
