CCGPS GeometryDay 48 (10-18-13) UNIT QUESTION: How are real life scenarios represented by quadratic functions? Today’s Question: What are special products when factoring quadratics? Standard: MCC9-12.A.SSE.3a
Difference of Squares A binomial with a subtraction sign in between terms that are both PERFECT SQUARES
To Factor Difference of Squares • One parenthesis is a plus and one is a minus. • Take the square root of each term.
Perfect Square Trinomials • These are special too, but can be done using our usual method of factoring trinomials
8. Factoring Special Cases:Word Problems A square piece of cloth must be cut to make a tablecloth. The area needed is (16x2– 24x + 9) in2. The dimensions of the cloth are of the form cx – d, where c and d are whole numbers. Find an expression for the perimeter of the cloth. Find the perimeter when x = 11 inches.
9. Factoring Special Cases:Word Problems A company produces square sheets of aluminum, each of which has an area of (9x2 + 6x + 1) m2. The side length of each sheet is in the form cx + d, where c and d are whole numbers. Find an expression in terms of x for the perimeter of a sheet. Find the perimeter when x = 3 m.
