Consider the expression 257 + 10x + 12. By i , 2is common in all the three terms. Factorizing 2 gives 2(x2 + 5x + 6). The expression x* + 5x + 6 can be factorized further into (x + 2)(x + 3), Therefore, the expression 2x" + 10x + 12 has three factors. ‘That is, 2x? + 10x + 6 = 2(x + 2)(x +3). Ic is important to inspect all the terms of quadratic expressions in order to identify and factorize the common factors.

Thus, a(x +y) = ax + ay. The opposite process ‘of expansion is called factorization. That is, in factorization, we insert brackets. Brackets usually group terms that have something in common. Consider the expression, 2m + 2n. Both m and n are multiplied by 2. We say that 2 is a common factor in both terms and can take “a position outside the brackets enclosing the expression m +n, ie. 2(m + n). When the common number, 2, ig written outside the brackets, the original terms are each divided by 2. Thus, 2m + 2n =2(% 7) =2 (m+n).

Chapter 5 Sets A set is a collection of objects which is defined by either listing all the objects or giving a rule that allows a decision to be made whether or not an object belongs to that set. For example, all the teachers in secondary schools is a set. All the negative numbers form a set, The village heads in a traditional authority form a set. The objects in a set are called elements or members of the-set The elements of a set are enclosed in curly brackets {}. For example, A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9} shows that A is a set whose elements are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. This can also be written as A = {natural numbers that are less than 10}. When the elements have common characteristics, a set-builder notation is used to shorten the statement. For example, M = {xx <0,x © N}. This is read as: Mis a set of the values of x such that xis less than zero, where x is an integer. Sometimes ‘|’ is used instead of “’, and the elements of set M are listed as M= {x| x<0,x © N}. The symbol, €, is used to show that an element is a member of a set. The universal set A universal set is a set of all elements under consideration, The symbol for a universal set ispor $. From the universal set, several other sets called subsets can be built. A subset is a set that contains part of or all the members of another set. The symbol © is used to indicate that a set is subset of another set, For example, if K is a subset of L, then this is indicated as K CL. A proper subset is a set that docs not contain all the members of the other set and it is not empty. The symbol, ©, is used to show that a set is empty. Example 5.1 Write down the possible universal sets fom which cach of the following sets have been. drawn. (@) M= {R Songwe, R. North Rukuru, R. Shire, R. Ruo} (b) N= {chambo, utaka, mlamba}.

Examples of transformations are translation, reflection, enlargement, rotation, shear and stretch. ‘The object obtained after @ transformation is called an image. The transformations which change the position ofa figure without changing its shape and size are called isometries. An example of an isometric transformation is a reflection, Translations A wanslation is a transformation such that the points in the object can be joined to corresponding points in the image by a set of straight lines which are all equal in length and parallel, A translation is described by the direction | and magnitude of movement (vector). Under a translation, all the points of the object move through the same distance and in the same direction. In order to obtain the image of a point under a translation, we add the vector of the translation to the position vector of the point. “Bxample 8.1 ‘Triangle ABC is such that AC-4, 3), BC, 1) and C(-2, 5).
