8.2 Factor by Grouping (top) • Group the terms (first two and last two) • Find the GCF of each group • Write each group as a product of the GCF and the remaining factors • Combine the GCFs in a group and write the other group as the second factor

8.5 Factoring Differences of Squares (top) • Factor each term • Write one set of parentheses with the factors adding and one with the factors subtracting • Foil to check your answer Ex: n2 - 25 n x n 5 x 5 (n + 5)(n - 5)

8.6 Factoring Perfect Squares (top) • Perfect Square Trinomial: • Is the first term a perfect square? • Is the last term a perfect square? • Does the second term = 2 x the product of the roots of the first and last terms? • The third term (c) must be positive • Use the sign of the second term • If any of these answers is no- it is not a perfect square trinomial

Combinations of Factoring Types(Top) • First look for the GCF and factor out if possible • Next look for patterns (perfect squares, difference of squares or sum and difference of cubes) • If no patterns appear factor the trinomial like normal
