A powerpoint presentation on how to solve factors of perfect square trinomial.

2. 𝒂 𝟐 + 2ab + 𝒃 𝟐 = ( a + b ) ( a + b ) = (𝒂 + 𝒃 ) 𝟐
𝒂 𝟐 - 2ab + 𝒃 𝟐 = ( a - b ) ( a - b ) = (𝒂 − 𝒃 ) 𝟐

3. Step 1
Get the square root of each term.
First Term: 𝒎 𝟐 = m
Third Term: 𝟏𝟔 = 4
Step 2
Using m and 4, form the sum ( m + 4)
and (m + 4)

5. Step 1
Get the square root of each term.
First Term: 𝒓 𝟐 = r
Third Term: 𝟔𝟒 = 8
Step 2
Using r and 8, form the difference
( r - 8) and (r - 8)

6. Step 1
Get the square root of each term.
First Term: 𝟑𝟔𝒚 𝟐 = 6y
Third Term: 𝟐𝟓𝑧 𝟐 = 5z
Step 2
Using 6y and 5z, form the difference
( 6y – 5z) and (6y – 5z)
