Lesson 2:

In this lesson, the learner is able to factor the


difference of two squares (M8ALla-b-1).
  
Remember that when we multiplied, the result is ,
thus, the factors of the difference between two squares
are the sum and difference of their square roots.

expressions completely.
 
Example

4.
Solution:
— Factor out 3. Then factor the resulting difference of two squares.

— Get the square root of each term.


a(first term): b(second term):
— Substitute to the pattern:
Factor the following
expressions completely.
 
Example

5.
Solution:
— Factor out 5m. Then factor the resulting difference of two squares.

— Get the square root of each term.


a(first term): b(second term):
— Substitute to the pattern:
Things to Ponder

To factor a difference of two squares, write the product as the sum and
difference of their square roots.
  symbols:
In

where:
a is the square root of the first term in the product; and
b is the square root of the second term in the product

* a and b may be real numbers, variables or expressions
