    This document discusses factoring perfect squares and the difference of squares. It notes that (x + a)(x - a) = x^2 - a^2 and (a + bx)(a - bx) = a^2 - b^2x^2. Examples are given of factoring expressions like 81x - 49, 36x + 12x + 1, and 3x - 75. Students are then asked to factor expressions such as 36x - 121, 4x + 12x + 9, 32x - 98, and 4 - 20x + 25x. The learning target is to identify and factor perfect squares and difference of squares.

    Learning Target: I can identify and factor perfect squares and difference of squares

    Warm Up: Expand the following and note any patterns you see.

    (𝑥 + 4)(𝑥 − 4) (𝑥 + 9)

    (3𝑥 + 5)(3𝑥 − 5) (2𝑥 − 1)

    What do you notice? What do you notice?

    Example 1: Factor the following

    81𝑥 − 49 36𝑥 + 12𝑥 + 1

    3𝑥 − 75 16 − 56𝑥 + 49𝑥
